Late Nights
I love the night, so dark and beautiful. So ideal for thoughts to arise, for thoughts to be resolved. Yet the thoughts that arise which deal with emotions are never welcome here. I may be courageous to confront some, but these thoughts are the ones that create mental factors which only make things difficult.
I wish the emotions and the thoughts would disappear, just as a reflection on a mirror suddenly vanishes when all light is extinguished from the room. Thus liberating me from these overdo emotions, which give me false hope, yet prevent me from moving on.
I guess wanting them gone is naive, wishful thinking, yet at the end of the thinking sessions i only got a small reminder to myself:
This too shall pass. Forget. Let Go.
Yet it is easier said than done no?
“See yourself in others, all beings tremble before violence, all fear death, all love life. See yourself in others, then whom can you hurt? What harm can you do?”

Try to live stress free. One moment of stress should not be taken as if it's the end of the world.... This will only kill you. Not worth wasting energy on such matters.
