There comes a moment in life, often in
the quietest of hours, when one realizes
that the world will continue on its
wayward course, indifferent to our desires or frustrations. And it is then,
perhaps, that a subtle truth begins to
emerge: the only thing we truly possess,
the only thing we might, with enough
care, exert some mastery over, is our
mind. It is not a realization of
resignation, but rather of liberation.
For if the mind can be ordered, if it can be made still in the midst of this
restless life, then we have already
discovered the key to a deeper kind of
freedom.
