Form is Emptiness, Emptiness is Form
1) When we grab the steering tightly our knuckles turn light pink & we stress out really bad and we are forgetting about how beautiful the world is and we are breathing shallowly (if that was a word).
2) When we open the hand [of thought] and feel the weightlessness of life we breath deeply and smile. It is laughable how simple and beautiful it all is. Embrace it [all} with your heart.
3) But the truth tells we need to hold on for dear live and we also open our hand [of thought] and feel the bird as it flies away effortlessly.*
*–"Eternity" by William Blake
He who binds to himself a joy
Does the wingéd life destroy
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sun rise.
