as long as we believe that things are as we perceive them to be, unalterable and immutable, we will feel helpless, and like victims, suffering at the hands of an unfriendly universe.

but when we realize that all things are alterable, in view and experience, then we begin to realize that the universe is our friend, giving us lessons every moment in how we can change in order to stop feeling victimized.

i call this the Friendly Universe, and i do not demand perfection of myself, but only observation and mindfulness as much as possible. i hope to give this gift to others, also, more and more every day in every way~

may you have peace, and the causes of peace~
