Pema Chodron shared something so beautifully and I am going to rephrase it in my own way.
When you hear the rain, it sounds so beautiful, peaceful and relaxing. We watch it from our windows and we enjoy it.
Yet if it were to rain on your wedding day, would it feel as beautiful, peaceful and relaxing?
The rain didn’t change— you did.
