Chasing after a pleasure to ease a pain is like running after a breeze to cool you down.
Never run from what you don't understand, as it will be waiting for you every time you come to a stop.
Much like the hands of a clock go nowhere fast, anxious thoughts run us round-and-round without taking us anywhere!
The mistake we have made in our lives is that over and over again we've run into the needful moment and then failed to learn its higher lesson. We don't like needful moments and therefore we resist them.
