View submission: What motivates you to practice?
I suppose if I stopped practicing and just left it all behind, I'd still be grappling with the problems I've always been grappling with. I'd still have my responsibilities, my habits, and I'd still be subject to discomfort, dissatisfaction, and loss.
There's a kind of timelessness to the way my practice has changed how I think about how I live, and one way or another, I may as well see it through or I may as well fall back into how I used to be before I took it more seriously. There's a chance if I abandoned it that that wouldn't happen, but it'd still shape how I approach suffering and so, in a larger sense, I'd still be practicing, in some way.
There's nothing here!
