The 4 Noble Truths

I received a flower hhahaha and this gift reminded me of a statement which a person used to say "nothing is permanent and that a person should not be too attached to anything he owns."

He lives by this................. I don't want to say anything more about him.

This leads me to google the teachings of Buddha and yes.... Please read on.

The First Noble Truth is "THE EXISTENCE OF IMPERMANENCE"

Nothing lasts forever. When you understand this it makes it easier to not be so attached to what you're experiencing. So when you're experiencing something you think is bad, you can relax in the knowledge that nothing bad lasts forever. Similarly, when you're experiencing happiness you can also realize that nothing good lasts forever. Why would you want to do that? Because it helps you to be more aware of how you're reacting to your experiences at all times.
