Reply To: How to understand this?

I appreciate your response, Benjamin, and the encouragement to climb back into the ring. It’s important to cultivate equanimity. I think about that a lot. Jack Kornfield goes through a litany in a sing-song voice that I find soothing, “Praise and Blame, Gain and Loss, Prestige and Disgrace, Pleasure and Pain.” I often turn to his teachings when I feel anxious or out of sorts. He always puts things into perspective. Thanks again for your responses.
