“A person whose identity relies on the fact that they were successful becomes vulnerable to failure; someone who needs to feel admired is vulnerable to criticism; someone who thinks that their relationship has to last forever becomes vulnerable once they break up; and any person who makes an issue out of every unsatisfied desire causes suffering on top of the initial one. Letting go is not avoiding suffering itself but simply taking away the extra meaning attached to it.”

“Our brains were shaped by nature over millions of years. Everything in our DNA was made for that world: hunting, gathering, resting, belonging to a tribe. The drive was simple: find food find shelter stay safe.. The system we live in now with its money, status, schedules and constant comparison is not part of nature. It's something we built. Our DNA has no instructions for it. Once our basic needs were met the drive to survive didn't switch off. It stayed alive. Attached itself to things it was never built for: wealth, approval, image, position. The brain treats them as survival though nothing in our DNA understands them. In nature every search ended: we hunted, we ate, we rested. In this system the search never. Nothing ever says 'enough.' The drive stays active with nowhere to go. The mind fills the gap with a story about who we are what we lack and what we must become. That story constructs the self, which's nothing more than an accumulation of past experience. From it an emerges and its only job is to survive in a system our DNA never prepared it for.. Everything this ego defends the status, the image, the possessions the roles was made up by us. It is fragile. In natures terms meaningless.. We treat it as a matter of survival and the clash, between that story and reality is what we feel as suffering. We are the cause of our own suffering: not because we are flawed but because we give importance to what we invented.”
― Dain Sica
