WHO HATES WHAT LIFE?

Have you ever declared, “I hate my life?”

I have.

And then I looked for what I hated, and couldn’t find it. I didn’t hate the cup of tea I was drinking. I didn’t hate the chair I was sitting on, or the clothes I was wearing, or the roof and walls that sheltered me. I didn’t hate the food I was fortunate enough to eat. I didn’t hate my two arms, two legs, two ears, two eyes, and I didn’t hate that they were all functioning well. The more I looked at my life, trying to find what I hated, the more I realized that it wasn’t there. It didn’t exist.

It only existed in a story I had made up. It wasn’t about anything that was actually happening, it was about something that wasn’t happening. Life wasn’t obeying me, wasn’t doing what I wanted, wasn’t giving me something I wanted. And when I believed a story about how things should be, I could believe that I hated life. When I didn’t believe the story, but instead looked at life as it was—the taste of tea, the purring of cats, the noise of traffic, the voices of friends, the work of the day—there was nothing but love.
