Right now, please closely examine yourself and see; how much of your body, how much of your mind, how much of your emotions, and how much of your energy is happening the way you want it? Very little. Right now, your mind, your emotions, your energy, and your body are mostly happening the way external situations demand, not the way you want them. If the outside situations are pleasant, you also become pleasant. If outside situations are unpleasant, you also become unpleasant. So, who you are is very deeply enslaved to the situations in which you exist.
