UN-ARTICULATING TIME

Ah, this bitter sweet confusion. Cacophonic, shrill and murky. Brown. And the all too familiar response of ego that calls for “order!” No escape, mate, we have THIS on our plate right now. Let’s simplify things a little to get some clarity so that we wouldn’t be drifted away. The hardest part of dealing with uncertainty seems to be a constricted sense of time. A heightened urgency in avoiding the unpleasant. And impatience as its inevitable consequence. Stop. Breath. Step not on the accelerator like a panicked inexperienced driver, but on the clutch pedal. Expand the sense of time. Make room to the uncertainty. Consider it an indefinite crossing. Shift this narrow-minded attempt to control to something more spacious. Be proactively patient.
