Everything is Temporary

When impermanence is understood, the craving for fulfillment is replaced with the satisfaction that whatever happens next doesn't matter much because one day what's next will prove how impermanent life really is…

Nobody knows the future, but what does the future matter if the present isn't being lived to the fullest. No one really know what’s going to happen next, but we all know death at least in this form will one day happen next, its just not known when that is. This is just a factual part of life regardless of any belief, one day this body will cease to support life as it is known today. We can make up a place that we are going to go to when we die (spiritually) but the body is going to become void of life and it will either be cremated or decay 6 feet underground. If this one truth can be understood than nothing else would truly matter because the impermanence of all things would be seen. And once this is seen life takes on an entirely different dynamic.

No longer is there something needed for fulfillment when this dynamic occurs because it’s realized life is already fulfilled. How can it not be with the understanding that all you need you already have and all that you have has no lasting substance to it. If everything is impermanent, everything is temporary, so nothing will bring fulfillment to life except an understanding that life's already fulfilled. Everything is a temporary fix that's why things are constantly reached for. If there wasn't a craving to be fulfilled there wouldn't be a need to reach for a temporary fix. That's why the understanding of impermanence has so much value to it because when it occurs the craving for fulfillment will be replaced with the satisfaction that whatever happens next doesn't matter much because one day what's next will prove just how impermanent life really is…
