THE LOTUS LANE

When a system is unfair, your anger makes complete sense — but living inside only that anger hands the people who wronged you even more of your life. Acting from clarity, even when nothing is guaranteed, is how you take yourself back.

“Suffer what there is to suffer, enjoy what there is to enjoy. Regard both suffering and joy as facts of life, and continue chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, no matter what happens.”

- Nichiren Daishonin, 'Happiness in This World,' WND-1, p. 681
