The importance paradox
Everything in your life at the same time is both unimportant and important.
All of your problems, your past, your dreams, your accomplishments, your relationships, all of it.
Unimportant.
Because they are not real in the sense they are permanent and here to stay.
They will all, one day, fade to black.
Everything with a beginning has an end.
But then, they are important... simply because they are a part of your reality.
What impact does this have on us?
#1, we don't take ourselves or the world too seriously, we are unattached.
And #2, we honor everything in our life with reverence and serve it accordingly.
The paradox reveals the value of the middle road.
