Reduce Stress just do your best

If we live our lives always sticking to some kind of conservative rhythm involving customs, tradition and culture or our own impossibly high standard, it makes us stressed because we are constantly comforming. if we don't conform, we feel we will get into trouble ; we will be labelled a troublemaker. we get a lot of headaches this way. 

    Of course we need some structure. Even in Buddhist teaching, there is structure and form to help us along the way, something to lean on. But we also believe in ancouraging people to free the structures with in themselves to reduce stress and misunderstanding. When we try to be or act in certain way all of the time, this makes us feel very nervous. you may cover it up well and appear fine on the outside, but inside you feel like you are in knots, or that you are trapped. This is because you have a rigid structure inside; we put ourselves in a box and then suffer from a lot of stress, always trying ti live up to our own rules and standards. We think things, others people or even ourselves have to do be a certain way and if they are not quit right, we become agitated. we are too attached to an idea of perfection, fed by our hopes and fears; after all,how can any thing in the world be perfect? it is totally subjective. Nothing is perfect, and nothing is wrong. we should just try our best.
