The essential is to accept oneself.....(if)I try to be distinct from what I am; in short, I am not me. Walking in snowy country, the disciple asked the Master. Master. the sidewalks are white; when will they lose this colour? The master did not respond right away. He concentrated in his hara, and then said, in a harsh voice, When the sidewalks are white, they are white; when they are not white, they are not white !. The essential is to accept oneself.....(if)I try to be distinct from what I am; in short, Iam not me. If on the other hand, I accept my state at the moment, I am at peace. I do not whine under the pretext that I must be more of a saint, more beautiful, more pure than I am - here in this moment. When I am white, I am white; when I am obscure, I am obscure. Thats it ! That does not prevent me from working on me, to seek to become a better instrument; this acceptance of myself does not limit my aspirations but rather sustains them. Because one can only advance from where one truly is - By: Alejandro Jodorowsky
