Life Is Suffering

Life Is Suffering

Despite pollens scorching my eyes, I sold most of our cookies on Saturday.
It was our best day ever in sales. Each week sales have been better than the last since we started 4 weeks ago. This result, however fantastic, gave me anxiety. How could we keep up with the momentum next week and beat this week sales?
"Life is suffering," my predicament brought to mind the Buddhist First Noble Truth. We climb one hill then we want to climb another. The striving and suffering never ends. No striving brings its own suffering. Either way, we suffer.
Climb these hills I shall. Suffer, I must.
