Afternoon with nephew and Dharma.
Today I spent most of the afternoon babysitting my nephew. He's 4.
I noticed, that on occasion he would cry... like the world was ending.
once we explained things to him he stopped crying, his suffering was based solely on ignorance.
and ... at one point , he had to leave..you know, go home..
upon his mother telling him this fact..
he just dropped to his knees and was like "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
crying like someone who just lost everything..
and I thought oh impermanence.., this kid is a reflection of what I will be like when I die..
"NOOOO!!!!! I don't want to go, I want to stay and have fun etc"
