Not poisoning the self is the challenge. We seek to hurt ourselves. Seek to drown out the sorrows or boredom. Poison is sweet at first but soon bitter. Too much pain to hold. Too much weight to bear. And so we poison ourselves. Belief is hard to come by. Hope is hard to come by. But we must work on controlling the desire to poison. Holding back from killing self. Holding back a thousand points pressing in fine points. Pushing away each one at a time. Think from the center of existence. Fire of existence. One. The inner will. The desire to live. The desire to become something special in protection. This is the frame.
