You are in your right place right now. Going through those experiences that are necessary for you. The worst thing you can do is to condemn yourself and your lot. This just pulls you deeper into maya [illusion]. Be happy where you are. Never compare yourself with anyone.

Be yourself just the way you are. Be thankful for what you are and where you are. It is only by being thankful, by acceptance that you begin to let go of your humanity. Every time you resist you’re accruing greater karma to you. Every time you try to stick up for your rights you are accruing greater karma to you.

And you will always have rights to stick up for. Only the nature of them will change. But you will be sticking up for your rights all of your life. And then you will take up another body and continue doing the same thing. It’ll never end.
