Bad

I tried so hard to B Good I was bad. So then I Decided to be bad & that didn't work either. So then I just became myself and that worked much better. Why didn't anyone tell me it would be so much easier to just stop trying so darn hard? [My student of 50 years ago said, “because you didn't listen.”] [I'm balancing two MTnesses. Maybe juggling? One is impermanence and the other is no essence. And of course they are 1.]
