Certainly, my life will once again fall into ‘decay’, as we like to call it. But precisely this falling into decay and rising up from it again is what it means to have a life. It is inevitable that we sometimes return to our base; ‘the state of decay’ or better said, emptiness, nothingness. It is inevitable because what we build has no ground and therefore it should not be surprising or shocking that it will come crashing down. Now you may think, oh no, my life is doomed to crash down. But this is not a terrible thought, for it is normal for our lives to ‘decay’ (which I hope is clear now, is not at all a decay) and therefore we should not fear it. Only be aware of it and accept whatever decay or non-decay our life receives.
Do not worry about emptiness; it is not something to fear or to avoid. It is our base, our neutral standard.
