There are more things we can do nothing about
than there are things we can do something about.
Guess which things we spend the most time thinking about.
Make sense of that for me
(Another thing nothing can be done about).
Making sense of things is way out of reach.
Making our peace with things we can't make sense of
should be doable, but.
I don't see much being done about that.
Making our peace with things
is fast approaching the status
of A Lost Art.
Coming to terms with things.
Allowing things to be as they are.
Being okay with things that are not okay...
Seems as though we could do that, but.
The Buddha would "pay it no mind."
Not thinking about things not worth thinking about
is a Buddha-thing.
"I'm not toting that load!"
Is one of the lost sayings of Buddha.
It is okay with him if we borrow it
whenever the occasion calls for it.
We take step closer to being the Buddha
every time we use it.
