Intense emotions, suffering, regret

Mental anguish/Regret is one of the trickiest feelings.

It feels intense and stuck in thought loops of ceaselessly dwelling on the regrettable/anguish inducing action.

Only when it passes and one re-experiences clarity of perspective that it occurs how darkly immersed we were.

It seems almost impossible to believe that the anguish will end.

Yet, it passes. Eventually.

All states of mind eventually pass - come and go - and on disappearing the background clarity of simply being is revealed.

At the background is always simply clear beingness in the present moment.

All the anguish/regret/anxieties/miseries/despair eventually passes to reveal the naked clarity underneath.

This is the gift of suffering. To reveal that which lies beyond it.
