Root of Problem
Every problem is like a big door. Luckily, there is a solution like a key which can open easily. Find the key. Life is simple.
I think nowadays so many of our problems we deal with are due to our selfish attitude. Selfishness is the root of many problems.
Our 'must-have' culture is damaging family life as materialism and a sense of selfishness become the norm in our society. It could be seen as everyday examples of a society in which people pursue their own interests without regard for others' needs.
Even little children have this trait. Many times, when two children are playing and one child doesn't care about a certain toy until the moment the other child picks it up? Suddenly both children want the toy. They scream and pull, and they will hurt and fight each other during the process. It's all because one child wants what the other has. That is just human nature. We are born that way, and we carry this trait with us through life.
Many times, we want our own way. How many problems in our society are because of selfishness? When marriages are falling apart, by and large, it is because of selfishness. People have sex before marriage because of selfishness. At the root of adultery is selfishness. Name a problem, and for the most part you will find selfishness is the temptation.
Don't be selfish; try to also consider others around you. Be humble. Can we put others need above us? Don't be controlled by selfishness.
To fine the key, we need to be on the right path. we need to constantly ask the Lord to transform and change us. Walking on the path of Tao is not an easy task, but it is a path we must walk and follow to be with the Lord. Tao is the key to our life. Have you find the key yet?
