Suppose that suffering comes from the desire for things to be other than what they are. Does this assume that we even grasp the way things are vs. the way thing seem to be? What is, isn't what seems to be. We have many notions of what is rather than what actually is. Suffering comes from distortions concerning our ignorance of what we think is actually happening and our desires to fix what we think is wrong, given our own ignorance. #writing #words #quotes
