Serenity

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.”
Rumi

The fight is within. The fight is in accepting that everything is not in one's control. Neither I have to be blamed for everything nor I have to be absolved. Some say intention matters, if that's the case mine was never impure. I need not submit to any single philosophy, logic, idea fully but sometime the way forward is to lean onto any idea that just reduces the chaos and brings about peace. It may not be the most constructive or romantic way, but might be suitable in practical reality.

So, for the sake of peace just accept the things as they are because analysis is done for understanding issues, potential, limitations and developing strategies for the future. Crucially, it is not done to alter the past but to build upon it. Start from today. Define today as a place free of any references but full of lessons and knowledge. You are an evolved person today, educated about yourself, and you can reset for forward motion, making conscious choices with best intentions. This may include making no choices at instances.

May peace be with everyone, may you know what you want or don't want. Just be serene.
