Existence is a continuously changing state of disorder. Yet, all things seek a state of equilibrium. If all things were ordered, fixed, and homogenous; they would cease to be. Change would be unnecessary and time itself would end.

Leaves grow where there is sunlight, and fall where there is shade.

Our suffering is the result of our desire for equilibrium in a world that is constantly in a state of flux. Through our suffering, we can find our harmony within the flux.

By evading our suffering, we make it stronger. The harder we try to swim in quicksand, the faster we sink. We can be still and mindful of our actions and learn from them and grow.
