Who am I?

[Guest guest]

True freedom and the end of suffering

is living in such a way as if you had

completely chosen whatever you feel

or experience at this moment.

 

This inner alignment with Now is the

end of suffering.

 

Is suffering really necessary?

Yes and no.

 

If you had not suffered as you have

there would be no depth to you as a

human being, no humility, no compassion.

You would not be reading this now.

Suffering cracks open the shell of ego,

and then comes a point when it has

served its purpose. Suffering is necessary

until you realize it is unnecessary.
