conquering self


It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.” Buddha

I struggle when applying this principle to my life; my ego gets in the way. Conquering my self would mean to admit that I am wrong…that I am not perfect… that I AM human. The first step in realizing that we are human is to realize we are impermanent. We are not here forever. Today I choose to realize that I am human, the first step in conquering self.

Blessings of Peace and Love,
Preston
