I agree. Accepting what is and having humility are deeply important in eastern ones, and although there are some phrases in the bible pointing to both of these, westerners seem to ignore them, for the most part.
Probably because they are actually harder to practice, lol. Accepting what is require constant practice. Humility is also supremely difficult to put into practice, but it is desperately important to do so if one ever hopes to actually be able to truly have compassion for others.
Cool thread btw.
