An Eastern Twist

We're looking at different practices during our Wed eve group now and Buddhism seemed the obvious one to try first. One of their basic truths is that life means suffering. It means things are not perfect, stuff happens. One of their other truths is that we can be at peace if we can accept that things are not and may never be perfect. I LOVE this. Too, often we expect perfection out of life (at least I do) and for me this took a load off. Stuff happens, it is what it is. WE put the judgement on it and that's like work. I'm ready to be a little lazy, how about you?
