Classroom Talk: 9/07/2025 - All anxious resistance to what "might be" is the avoidance of what is.

Classroom Talk: 10/12/2025 - There is no painful state of psychological resistance to any given moment that isn’t preceded by some form of unseen demand that we have brought with us into that moment. 

We rarely see when we take the path of least resistance in life -- that low road called 'guaranteed to go nowhere' -- because of how immediately we identify with the legion of thoughts and feelings that always appear in that same moment of our suffering to justify the 'choices' we make to escape it.
