In the secret cave of the heart, two are seated by life’s fountain.
The separate ego drinks of the sweet and bitter stuff,
Liking the sweet, disliking the bitter,
While the supreme Self drinks sweet and bitter
Neither liking this nor disliking that.
The ego gropes in darkness, while the Self lives in light.
From The Katha Upanishad (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katha_Upanishad)

True that - difficult to not want to drink the bitter in life. Just have to accept that all life is bittersweet.
