“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,
