(Look for this week’s #ThursdayThoughtfulness questions after the jump.)
This Week’s Questions: Have you ever ignored a problem or potential change long enough that eventually you needed to resolve that problem or integrate that change into your life? What did you learn from this experience? How did your life change in small or great ways as a result of this? Also, do you agree that, like Pema Chodron says, nothing goes away until we address it and learn from it?
Follow #ThursdayThoughtfulness at the blog on select Thursdays. Feel free to spread the thoughtfulness by reblogging this post, writing your own post on this topic, or sharing the quote image on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.
I thibk its possible for things to go away, they just come back again. You can treat the symptoms but the illness will keep returning until you address the cause. The same goes for any problem I think.

^^ Exactly. No problem ever solve itself on its own. We have to take the initiative to solve it ourselves and learn from it, or else it keeps coming back to bite us.

The quick answer would be “yes”. 🙂
I think the most important lesson is that… sometimes it’s better to leave problems alone. Some of them might get resolved on their own, by just giving them time while trying to make things work before that might cause a lot of stress and grief.
The problem is to know which ones are better left alone, and which ones really shouldn’t be put away… 😉
