This conversation about recognizing that I’m not any more important than anybody else is something I think, retired people, especially reckoned with People would ask me what I was doing as if it were my next job to find my next opportunity to compete and I would tell them that I’m practicing the quality of my being now that doesn’t mean I’m always successful that I do a good job, but it was how I could understand myself after retirement

@wadinglady Thank you for sharing your insights. 'Practising the quality of my being' is a lovely way of phrasing inner development - the steady growth of our positive qualities of mind rather than an incessant striving for external attainments. Glad you enjoyed this conversation.

Thanks for discussing the paradoxes. Everything in life is like this. We're all unimportant and important at the same time. Our thoughts and actions everyday seem passing and insignificant but in the chain of how we effect others, these thoughts and actions can ultimately make a big difference.

Yes.🙏. This is the heart of Buddhism. It's all impermanent. Our idea of self is in the 'all'.
