Anxiety about changes and want things to turn out the way I wanted. The desire for certainty. This is suffering. As simple as the certainty that the sun will rise tomorrow is not a sure thing. The recent earthquake in Japan is just a reminder of the impermanence of things. To desire for certainty is to suffer. Seeing that entice me to loose the desire a little bit. I get a little peace. A peace of mind to deal with changes without the anxiety. Things are fine as it is. Do my parts and let things happen. Not blaming anything or anyone, including myself. Yes, the last part is very important.
I am sure the ability to deal with small changes like this will help me to deal with bigger changes in life later. I learn to seize the moment and live at the present, without worrying what may comes that is not under my control, or blame anyone, including myself for what happen or not happen in the past.
