We let go and we let God, la la la la la la laa

One of the male cats who was born and raised at this complex long before I arrived was badly injured about a week ago. We don't know if he was hit by a car, or what--appears his right front leg/shoulder is broken and looks like a sore/wound on his head... and this wonderful woman, Connie, experienced and very active with the TNR of feral cats, has been here several times this past week trying to trap him and get him to a vet... but he no go in the traps. This morning he is moving very slowly... I put some food out but don't know if he ate any. He eventually started to make his way along the fence under the shrubs... and I know, there are so many other REALLY AWFUL TERRIBLE HORRIBLE TRAGIC things taking place... ... so, today I am doing my best to let go, to accept, to be helpful if I can... instead of raging at God.

Best of luck with that cat.... I hope you can catch him and help him, poor guy. And I know what you mean about all the time there's BIG things going on and just sitting there thinking, and what am I doing? Nothing! That keeps me up at night. I try and try to think how I can contribute something valuable to life, and somehow whatever I do never feels like enough. I guess when we're dead, we've done enough.

@Luv4Learning Hey, I'm a Buddhist and letting go doesn't mean resignation in the face of adversity, I think it means letting go of situations which have happened or are happening which we have no control over. E.G. I recently didn't get a job i wanted and i was very upset. However, Buddha would encourage me to let go of trying to resist the truth and just go with it. Hope that helps. x

I have the same problem--let go and let Buddha, but then I think, "So, I just let someone get murdered in front of me while I'm chanting, 'Let go and let Buddha'?????" It makes no friggin' sense to me. There has to be balance. That's what I think. Find a balance between the two poles of your mind, and you might feel better. I have been trying to do that for a long time now :) *LOL*
