The Nature of Bullying

My wife told me about a video of how a mother realized she’d been bullying her oldest daughter, then witnessed that daughter bullying her younger sister. The mother was horrified.

I think I’ve also been bullied by my mother.

Thoughts come and go. Emotions also come and go. Every emotion has a beginning and end, although we may not recall the ending most of the time.

I can see the breeze gently blowing through the fairway behind my house. The swaying of the palms, the little pivots of the blades of grass. I’ve been breathing ever since I was born, and it’ll be the last thing I do.

Everything is temporary and everything is one thing.
