LIfe Classes – Day 5 & 6
A Question I Am Left With After This Life Class:
Many of us are familiar with the age-old phrase, “Ignorance is bliss,” but is ignorance really bliss? I found this excerpt from the book particularly thought-provoking: “What makes life difficult is that the process of confronting and solving problems is a painful one.” The key, I think, is becoming aware of that pain—acknowledging it, making space for it in our lives, and spending time getting to know it. This is what makes the difference. Once we become familiar with that pain in a way that allows us not to hold on to it, we set ourselves free and transcend it.
Another moment that stood out to me was the activity we did on the second day of the Love class. It was incredibly wholesome to hear everyone’s stories about what love means to them. It was truly enjoyable. A big thank you to our facilitators for their time, energy, and infectious enthusiasm.
