Sometimes we suffer melancholy and despair over the transient nature of life. Under the best conditions, life is unpredictable and uncertain.\u00a0 Perhaps we should consider if the opposite might be worse.\u00a0 I love the philosophy contained in early Chinese and Japanese poetry.\u00a0 One poem by Yoshida Kenko beautifully describes this thought.\u00a0 Kenko was a 14th century Japanese Buddhist monk, and he wrote a book called, Essays of Idleness<\/em>.\u00a0 Here is one passage.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

If man were never to fade away like the dews of Adashino, never to vanish like the smoke over Toribeyama, but lingered on forever in this world, how things would lose their power to move us!\u00a0 The most precious thing in life is its uncertainty.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let me share one possible interpretation of this passage in my life and you can experiment doing the same with events that trouble you, including having a serious AZ IRS problem.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

My wife and I recently became empty nesters.\u00a0 We have six wonderful children who exceeded our expectations in almost every way. \u00a0Yet one by one they all moved out of the house and are now on their own.\u00a0 Quickly a flood of melancholy replaced their absence.\u00a0 Then I considered how I would be if that event never happened.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t imagine changing diapers, going to Cub Scout meetings, piano recitals, and Open House nights at school for the rest of eternity.\u00a0 It is the very fact that these events have an ending that make them endurable as well as special.\u00a0 I remind myself when I long to have those moments back, that that is God\u2019s way of reminding me that what I had was good.\u00a0 If those moments were unpleasant, there would be no longings.\u00a0 Dr. Seuss said, \u201cDon\u2019t\u00a0 cry because it\u2019s over, smile because it happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

So how does all this relate to having a serious Arizona IRS problem?\u00a0 Sometimes we allow what we interpret an event as a major crisis when that is really just the way life is.\u00a0 If you have a matter with the IRS you need a professional with IRS expertise.\u00a0 Call Scott Allen E.A. and allow him to give you a free consultation.\u00a0 He will put your mind at ease so that you can enjoy your present.\u00a0 Scott has been trained to use the best option for you.\u00a0 He doesn\u2019t take IRS cases unless it benefits you.\u00a0 Scott Allen E.A. can be reached at 480-926-9300.\u00a0 There are many things in life that are uncertain.\u00a0 Don\u2019t let your IRS problem be one of them.\u00a0 Call Scott Allen E.A. today.\u00a0 And when you come across events in life that are uncertain or transitory, may I suggest reading this poem by Yoshida Kenko.<\/p>\n
