Equanimity, learning to settle down into
what is happening now
today, with some measure of ease
Is not about viciously confronting our
greatest fears
about our mortality, our growing age
our health challenges, or the unknown
Equanimity is about doing what fits, what
works
so that we are not continually shocked and
frightened
and brought up short
by what is simply here, in our lives.
Equanimity is about easing ourselves into
what is happening right now
The vestiges of the past seen and held and
released
The glimpses of the future caught and felt
and acknowledged
The whole deal, soft focus, we feel as we
settle slowly
into saying to ourselves, Yes, this is what
is.
And then letting in the ease of the big
picture.
