"Detachment doesn't mean you don't let the experience penetrate you. On the contrary, you let it penetrate you fully. That is how you leave it."

For anyone who has read the book Tuesdays with Morrie, you know that this is Morries method to being able to leave the emotions we feel behind so that we can experience others. Yesterday, in my opinion, I havd a very traumatic experience, one that left me shaking, and in tears. Scared thoughts racing through my head, i didnt know how to overcome this, i didnt know if i COULD. THen i remembered those words. So currently i am in stage one: Feeling it. I am going to feel every pain, taste every tear, and embrace every thought. And, tomorrow, I will detach myself, move on, fix the problem, and become a better person for it.
When you are doing things right, it is harder to accept the fact that bad things can still happen. "Bad things happen to good people." it doesn't make it fair, it just makes it life.
