Ever try to change someone else? Like your spouse, boss, or a friend? How did that work out? I’m guessing not very well.

Are you shoulding all over yourself? Do many of the sentences that make up your inner dialogue or conversations begin with the word “I should?” If so, you may find yourself exhausted, depleted, confused, angry/irritable, depressed or all of the above!

“Life is suffering. Attachment is the source of suffering. The end of attachment will bring the end of suffering.” Buddha I love this wisdom from Buddha because it reminds me that I am usually the source of my suffering.
