Change

it is important

that we not give up

any of us

despair sets in

with patience it

must leave

change brings with it

change and more change

change is frightening

change is frustrating

change is freeing

change is inevitable

and this we all know

change forces us to deal

with change

without change we

would not (could not)

change

without change no movement

no force no particle

no sphere no circle

change is in a line with non-change

making it ubiquitously circular

that is, we all know, we are mandated

to change eventually

within change there is always grieving

grieving that must surface first

as anger

then on to sadness

then in to a willingness to accept

change as inevitably helpful

change could not occur without a

state of stillness

for change changes stillness into

something that can never be still

we are still without ever being still

this is us and we are thus

we can get beneath or behind or within

any change because we are still

that is we can overcome the difficulty change presents

by being still

stillness overrides change because

it is its child

and

it is its parent

child and parent to change

stillness keeps us safe

stillness is available to every entity

and process

from within or without stillness prevails

so therefore and therein we can turn off

change as soon as it begins

we can turn it on as soon as we turn it off

change and non-change are in a mandatory

continual flow

as things change they remain the same

and this of course we all know very well

so the secret to overcoming the despair

and fear and frustration that change mandates

is to find the stillness which mandates change

this stillness reorients our attitude toward change

we can watch it happen without becoming part of it

we can use the time to hide lay low move away back behind

we can gather ourselves in quiet to find

that (the)

change does not change us

by cause (circular-ily)

still and continually moving

change most certainly

does not change
