Free of Craving

To become free of suffering one must become free of craving. But to become free of craving, it is not enough to detach from craving when suffering has already occurred, for it might by then already have brought one out of balance; instead, detach from craving when one has wishes for the future. Do not crave one outcome above another, even though one outcome may be better; in the end you will see what outcome fate has brought you. Realize then that all outcomes have their own value, and, if only one is aware of it, also their own beauty.
