[Limpho Mojakisane]

The universe doesn't miscalculate.

You can always find peace and coherence in this undeniable eyes-closed truth via the simple three-word mantra: "Reality is right."

If your deceiving eyes see the phantom of wrongness in your brain's abstract made-up model of reality, remember it's not really there in the actual math and physics. What exists on a mapping often doesn't really exist in that which it maps. Don't believe everything you see.

Nothing ever happens that shouldn't happen.

In reality, there never really is any wrongness to resent, hate, or forgive.

Should-not-have-ness doesn't exist.

When I tell you to love all--to fully accept and love everything--I am not telling you to love the wrongness, but rather to realize that reality is always lovably right. There is no wrongness to love or not love. There is only the rightness of reality and the fictionality of the imaginary which is itself rightfully unreal.

The universe never miscalculates.

Say it with me now: Reality is right.

Thank you for this piece. It grounds me while also making me a bit uneasy through the affirmation "Reality is right." You allude to a rather radical acceptance, not of ideas or opinions, but of whatever truly is, as it is arising moment-by-moment.

I think I follow your main argument. You appear to be suggesting that most suffering comes from either resisting the flow of life or attaching our sense of reality to scenarios of how things should be in our minds. It seems the viewpoint here being proposed is that wrongness does not exist in the reality of whatever form, but exists only in our interpretation of it.

But that raises questions in my mind about injustice or harm. If someone does harm, is the acceptance supposed to cover that as well? Or are we talking more about the clear sight of the fact that the act occurred, without denial, while putting in place all the possible and wise responses?

I'd like to know more about how you think that looks practically, in life, especially when it becomes tough.

Reality is right! I think this is a nice extension of the philosophy of not believing in should and shouldn'ts. We have to start accepting things as they are and not as they ''should or should not be'', reality it is what we have and reality is right.
