Maturity

One has to learn to like what is happening. That is what I call maturity. One has to like that which is already there. Immaturity is always living in "oughts", "shoulds", and never living in the "is"--and "is" is the case. "Should" is just a dream. One should live intensely. Why? Whatsoever is the case is good. Love it and like it and relax into it. When sometimes intensity comes, love it. When it goes, goodbye. Things change...Life is a flux, nothing remains the same, so sometimes great spaces and sometimes nowhere to move. But both are good. Both are gifts from God. One should be so grateful that whatsoever happens, one is grateful, thankful.
