Problems are often viewed with fear and anger whenever our sanity level is low. What would happen to these same problems if we found a spiritual way, an inner way, to fill up that sanity level? The same problems might begin to be viewed with curiosity. Curiosity might say, "Humm. I wonder why this seems like a problem? Why is it not an opportunity? Or a way of seeing with different set of eyes?" All this is a way to prepare us to widen our way of working with the situation. We might come up with something quite creative for us. Instead of a narrow view, we have a wide vista. No doubt there are tragedies. But meanwhile, many of the things that come into our heads or emotional life, are viewed quite narrowly. I work on sanity early in the day to be in more fit spiritual condition to handle what comes up, real or imagined.
