[QUOTE="Malika, post: 425362, member: 11227"] Yes... sometimes being wise seems rather unreal, abstract, some distant occupation for saints or robots... removed from the reality of our emotions. But I think really that being "wise" is just about not wanting to suffer. There is obviously a lot of suffering in not accepting what one has in one's life. And sometimes what one has in one's life is so terrible, so unbearable, from the "ordinary" point of view that other approaches must be found to it than just saying this is terrible, this is unbearable, I cannot go on with it... (HaoZi has made me paranoid about my favoured stylistic device of three dots - but not enough to stop doing it... :-) ) [/QUOTE]
