I Am Not Exempt
My apologies for not posting yesterday, but I was having surgery to remove a spot of skin cancer (not melanoma) that had returned. This was not an especially traumatic event, but it did give me pause.
Maybe that’s why last night I chose to listen to this talk by Joseph Goldstein titled: Deepening Insight into Permanence. It’s an excellent teaching on these 3 reflections:
Whatever is of the nature to grow old, will grow old. I am not exempt.
Whatever is of the nature to fall ill, will fall ill. I am not exempt.
Whatever is of the nature to die, will die. I am not exempt.
