Teacher

Life is a good teacher and a good friend. Things are always in transition, f we could only realize it.

Pema Chodron

What I want from my life
some solid ground, is 
never what will be given. A
life does not behave, is not good
like a child pleasing the teacher
but is unruly, beautiful and
unwilling to offer a
guarantee.  This life is good
is best, the truest friend
when I trust all things
are safe in hand, are
becoming, and always
destined to be what I need in
their own time.  Transition
frightens me, but if
I am willing to breathe deep we
can be friends, could
make something only
alive in this moment, realize
the beating heart of it
