every day i work to let go of judgments and distorted feelings because i want to be happy. i want to feel better. and i want to be a loving person. but this is exactly what keeps me from really being alive. because happiness is an illusion- not in a mysterious buddhist sense, but in a simple, real sense- happiness is a small part of life. happiness doesn't include all of being. feelings aren't all happy. life isn't made to be happy. being real is not about being happy. being a loving person is about caring for yourself while being deeply connected, committed, and compassionate. being a loving person is about letting go of judgments and overcoming resistance. being a loving person is about unconditional love.
