Impermanence


I've been going to the park with my daughter and I see people aging before my very eyes. I guess I didn't notice it until I started feeling old. 

I don't really look in the mirror much any more, but I do occasionally and I see photos of myself. Turns out I've aged too.

My daughter asked where the ice cream truck went. I told her impermanence. At 5 she's not really into my cryptic explanations. 

It's a question to me whether I'm adopting a paradigm because I'm suggestable, or whether the paradigm really is true. It really feels true, so I guess it's a development of Śraddhā
