I watched a documentary on Buddhism. The show talked about a little girl. She was upset that Buddha didn't tell her about where she would be reborn. Buddha told her that she should be concerned with how to eliminate her suffering in the present moment. I thought that my problem was that I was overly complicating my religion. It occured to me that my religion should be about making me feel better. I feel better now.
