When one complains about anything the only way to be able to complain is because it’s something inside oneself that is disturbed. Exception is a delusion. Surrender the outcome of all plans one can accept anything. 😮

[@som1980]

Very well said. Did you come up with that yourself or did you hear it somewhere?

[@lisarobinson5999]

I heard the surrender the outcome from someone close. I've always believed that if one doesn't become aware of what complaining is or ever experienced it than it can't exist until it does feeling become a narrative a sort of story much like the game telephone. Before you know it the person who has what appears to be control over their mind is like a bullet saying I'm dangerous without a gun...

Hi,what does this mean?Can you simplify it?

[@usarmyveteran177]

Yes I agree. I was on jury duty and the attorney asked me as a juror if I believe in “the system”. I said whatever the outcome of the trial I will not be disappointed. He asked why and I said I know that I did my part. It was a child molestation case.
