What do you do when, with all the subtlety of a wrecking ball, something comes and destroys one of the supporting pillars of your life? Do you stiffen, resolving to keep a straight face through adversity? Or do you break down, crying in despair and insecurity? The Buddha's first universal truth is impermanence. Nothing is immune to change, no matter how desperately we cling to it. At the risk of sounding redundant, the Buddha was a really smart guy.

EDIT: What do you do when you find you're wrong, and you take a step back and see that it's still there, and you're still whole?
