Problems

There is no problem that cannot be solved. When you have a problem that you think cannot be solved, you have accepted it. Then it is no longer a problem but a fact. Suppose you think it is a problem that the ocean in Norway is too cold. Obviously, you cannot heat the ocean so it cannot be changed, you accept it and it is no longer a problem. Only when you are searching for a solution is there a problem. Thus there is no problem that cannot be solved. The moment you realize there is no solution, a problem ceases to be a problem.

The solution is the tail of every problem. Solutions come to you when you are calm and centered, when you use intelligence, when you are not lethargic but active, and when you have strong faith in divine law.
