T30 - Resolution - C 8

Resolution is an ideal. You can never really have it. You can only shoot for it. Whether it's in a romantic relationship or spiritual, one can only seek it and never obtain it completely at least in a larger sense. Oh, we can have small resolutions here and there, even on a daily or weekly basis as in business, and these are satisfying for a moment or two. They are merely portents of the end point of larger resolutions: death. At the end of a small resolution what happens is we move onwards into another problem or another area of life and leave behind the considerations which led to the smaller resolution. That is the death of that process, those considerations and that resolution. Hopefully we learned something from it which we can apply to our next step in life. So it goes on and on until we cease to be. I had an Aunt who died. Just before she died she told me that she had discovered something and wanted to tell me what it was. Unfortunately she died before I saw her again. I've always speculated about what it could have been.
