Why are you unhappy?

Because 99.9 percent of everything you think, and of everything you do, is for yourself—and there isn’t one.

    Tom, who said I was unhappy? I have times in my life where periods of unhappiness drift in.But like anything they move on. Like right now I’m happy to be communicating to you.I’m unhappy that my neck is hurting from sitting at the computer to long… but, All I need to do is get up and rest by laying down and we’re good to go again. I’m justa saying!

    Hey Mark. :-) Pay careful attention to the next time you are unhappy. Notice who that to be unhappy requires a central character, you, in the drama. Without the character, the unhappiness disappears. Your neck my still hurt, but you won’t. To paraphrase the Buddha: no self, no suffering.
