Worry





I am increasingly aware of people speaking
as if they were afraid of things – terrorist activity, financial crisis,
the success of their children, caring for their aging parents, etc.






If this second is the only one we have any guarantee of, and it is,
why can I not see that breathing, being alive in this precious second is enough?








Weather as Trainer?





Today it is raining heavily.

This is January in Maine. It is supposed to be snowing.





What might happen if we stopped, all together, the practice of thinking about anything other than what is happening in this second?








Fear





This is the only second we have any guarantee of.
At some point we will die and our bodies will become dirt, water
or some other marvelous thing.





Perhaps reality is the only thing we have come to fear?
