INSIGHT 2
Suffering Responds to
Perception, Not Circumstance
Suffering has nothing to do with what happens in life and everything to do with how you perceive it.
It’s not the event that hurts you; it’s the story you attach to it.
Real freedom begins when you notice how your mind twists reality into a problem that only exists in the mind — not in reality.
Recall a stressful situation — was it the
situation itself or the meaning you gave
it that caused your pain?
