📝 Difficulty Arise I Beg of You

Dear Greats,

When the challenges come, and they will. You must accept them as a blessing.

Without fire you cannot be forged, without frost you will not discover your mould.

When difficulty arises, which it surely will. You needn’t rise to meet it. You need only guide it to the seat in your office. Prepare it some tea. Give it a blanket, and let it fall as swiftly as it rose.

The difficulty is never yours to overcome, it is yours to guide for it is surely mistaken.

If you continue to rise above the difficulties that arise, you will find yourself atop a mountain, fatigued and stumbling, a single step away from tumbling down the bottomless pit named rise again.

There is nothing to rise above once you realise that mortal ‘dimensions’ are not the truth. There is no up, there is no down, it is alchemy of the mind.

You see, a difficulty is only as difficult as you allow it to be. If you wish to protest, go ahead, I shall not rise to meet you there. I shall merely greet you once you reach the end, well rested and laughing out of love for you.

O troubles, O troubles. Where art thou troubles.

“Into the valley of Death

Rode the six hundred.”

Your deepest well-wisher,
