Life keeps moving forward, I want to grab onto something,

A relationship, a possession, “the truth”, but there will be no stopping.

Life will not wait for my fear or my neediness to subside.

My desire for permanence, for stability, for security, will never be granted.

I can learn to live with this.

After much stumbling around in self-importance, I begin to see some daylight.

There is no need for me to try forcing or controlling what comes next.

Troubles will come and they will pass.

Tyrants will have their time and they will fail.

If I have a role to play, it will be clear to me, if not I will abide.

I choose to place my faith in the laws of nature, the big picture,

And a safe universe. Grateful for my breath.
