Everything changes. That is life

In Buddhism, the most fundamental teaching is this.

Everything changes, that’s life.

諸行無常。

Nothing stays the same.

I wanted a better relationship with my husband so I used Laura’s intimacy skills and made it better.

My life is better.

I’m happier.

I’m more in peace.

We have lots of smiles, laughter, joy in our house.

But is that going to always be there?

Is my life always going to be peaceful?

No.

Staying the same is just impossible, because we are living.

So we have a crisis here and there,

Fights that takes smiles away sometimes,

Illness or injury that hits us,

regret, anger, sadness … all expected to come from time to time.

That is just the nature of life.

Not my fault or my husband’s fault.

That’s just the nature of life.
