While the faces change, humans don’t have that many different kinds of problems. Those stay the same. Some problems are so old that we’ve got ancient parables for them that are just as important and informative today as they were thousands of years ago.
Here’s the Zen parable you might need to hear right now:
“A woman raised a goose in a bottle. When the goose had grown, she wanted to get it out without harming the goose or breaking the bottle. How do you get the goose out of the bottle?”
Consider how many Americans at this current moment are stuck at a crossroads of desire. Two conflicting choices leave them paralyzed with neither. Are you stuck wanting your goose and your bottle?
