Healthy Distance

Be relentless

Ambitious

Passionate

While free from addiction to reality

From fear, frustration, tension

For the reality-desire mismatch

To curiosity

For how it plays out 

Fly too close 

To the sun and you’ll get burnt

To the truth and you’ll get liberation 

Kick the unskillful habits

The truth shall set you free

Cause, effect

Skillful, unskillful

Noble truth

Cease fighting

Soften your approach

Each moment 

Not resisted

Is embraced

As a new, productive unfolding 

Leverage the opportunity

Unfiltered

Non-judgmental 

Objective

Observation

Not preaching to the choir

Is appealing to your best self

Maintain healthy distance from reality

Hit the brakes

Untangle

Remain backstage

The body is a mist of sensations

Sit back and let the thought storms carry away

Observe the negative atomic space

In the deep end, without rails

Swim in sensations

Unanchored

Annicca annicca annicca

This is all there is
