Insanity

 What I spoke about yesterday, and you may well have forgotten it already, is a form of insanity.  That is, things are going well and we expect, without any effort on our part, that life will stay pleasant.  The outsides change.  Weather, traffic, health, age, other people, they all are out of our control.  Yes, sometimes things can go our way without any effort on our part.  The insane thinking is that it will always be this way.  As if we were God in control.  So assume that you are flawed but that with a daily spiritual practice, what steps that may be, are needed to work on yourself, your insides, over which you can have some control.  The world out there may not respond or care for your guidance, your efforts, but the heart waits for attention. The outsides do not give you emotional stability.  Insane people think otherwise.
