Bit by Bit - Chapter 2, Part 7

Trey Smith


Joy, anger, grief, delight, worry, regret, fickleness, inflexibility, modesty, willfulness, candor, insolence - music from empty holes, mushrooms springing up in dampness, day and night replacing each other before us, and no one knows where they sprout from. Let it be! Let it be!.
~ Burton Watson translation ~
Let.  It.  Be.

Wise words that can be so hard to implement.

We want things to be how WE want them, not as there are.  We want to mold the world to our liking.

In our own way, we each want to play god.
