If you can’t throw away what you have, you don’t own it properly. If you cannot leave the place you are staying, you are not entirely settled. Possession and non-possession share the same root, and wandering and settlement share the same root. There is no eternal state; we only enjoy a temporary state. It is often misunderstood that a state of possession for a moment is possession, and that a momentary absence is mistaken for wandering. The world changes, and you change too. Obsession and stubbornness will only hinder your change. If you know how to give up and leave at any time, the value of what you currently have and the state you are in will change significantly. Stability comes from sharing instability. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Humans understand the notion of “expectation time.” It’s crucial to confront the issue that is tacitly accepted. This tacit acceptance becomes problematic regardless of whether the “expectation time” is brief or lengthy. For instance, if a meal takes five hours, something must be amiss. Conversely, if a haircut lasts just one minute, people might suspect dishonesty. Effective communication hinges on precise expression, but it is equally essential to manage expectation time appropriately. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
