Face Your Own Life Yourself
📖Master’s Reading
Growth begins with ceasing to blame and depend. Life is in fact like "wilderness survival": you must learn to live on, learn to handle all outer things, even learn to heal yourself when ill. In this world, when you suffer, perhaps those around you give warmth and care, but in the end no one can bear the pain for you, nor walk this journey of life for you.
When we always hand the hope of solving problems to others and forever seek help, life loses its lead. All problems in life must, in the end, be faced and handled by oneself; besides yourself, no one can help you. Rather than bitterly wait for another's rescue, bravely take up your own responsibility; facing difficulty, learn what you cannot do, seek answers to what you do not understand. No one under heaven can lead you smoothly through a whole life.
True practice is first knowing and understanding yourself, then learning the methods to handle problems. When you no longer flee, learn to stand firm in adversity, and cultivate the courage to face unknown challenges, the same trial in the future is readily resolved. Every moment of bravely facing difficulty is nourishment for the soul's maturity. Learn to heal your own wounds and take back the autonomy of destiny, and you gain true transformation and strength in this wilderness survival of life.
