Outgrowing problems

Unless you're an enlightened monk, you face problems everyday.

But our "problems" might not be problematic at all. They shift based on perspective and parameters.

If you live in rainy weather, you struggle with constant flooding. But if you live in the desert, water is a blessing.

Every problem you face is a gift to someone else.


Ultimately, we never solve most problems. They linger in our head for days, weeks, or years without an answer.

Instead, they must be outgrown.


Consider something we all face: DEATH!

It's normal to fear death and desire to prolong your life. Yet, we've all heard of terminal patients who surmount this instinct.

Every person who has overcome death didn't do it by finding the fountain of youth. They outgrew it and often live better because of it.


Death is a weighty example, but it's the only major event we will all encounter.

If the chains of mortality can be outgrown, what can't be?
