The Wise Old Cherokee Story
This is an old wise tale about good and evil, choice, and the way of life…
An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life.
“A battle is going on inside all of us,” he said to the boy.
“It is a terrible fight and it’s between two wolves. One is evil, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. The other is good, joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith. This same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person, too.”

Empty Your Cup
This is a common saying and a commonly told story in martial arts circles …

He had knowledge and experience aplenty to draw upon. But each time the master tried to explain something new to the student, the student kept trying to hold it up against his own notions of the way the world is and how it ought be, and he was unable to see the lessons in what the master was trying to teach him.

Sometimes things might not go your way. If this happens, there are tendencies to either open or shut that instance. Stopping yourself from that movement, blocking yourself off of it could prevent being affected by it. Though, it also cuts the ties in the lifeline to it.
Technology
While working with our inner and outer lives, technological advances come to our aid to making processes better. In this day in age, there are many new goodies that really try to help.
