Sharings by Daniel

More words from Jenny:
From where I am, what makes me happy is a flowing feeling of love and beauty, so I am attracted to pleasures and dread pains like all of us. Nothing can change that.
…
My question is: Is there beauty and love in pain as well as in pleasures? I think it is up to each of us to find it out till the inner self inside of us smiles and says: “Aha”!   Certain things in life surely give me lots of pleasures and… pains. My work is to see where the beauty and love lie in them. Especially to see that I am capable of love and beauty myself, not just appreciating it but giving it and inspiring it.
…
Then there is a painful part of it. Does that prove pleasures and pains can not be separated? If they are not separate, why separate them? Maybe from the pains, I can learn to handle the pleasures associated with them? Again the question comes back: “Is True Nature separate from Human Conditions?  Do they separate from pleasures and pains? I don’t know the answer. I only hope I ask the right question.
…
Let the pain sharpen my awareness and hold the torch high on the path, the path to self liberation. Pleasures certainly come mellow, sweet and absolutely enjoyable. I welcome them, thank them and let them go when they go. On the other hand, I should remember that pains can come from…loving, and compassion …from pains.

After reflecting on her words, I came away with this sentiment:
Have faith in yourself that, given time apart from the daily stress,
your thoughts and feelings will flourish if allowed to be yourself.
Let go of the fear and anxiety and be that radiant person who is cherished.
