If life is about relationships,
then life is about change as well,
change is part of how we relate,
one to another. Until, very much alive,
we come to nurture rest in ourselves
more than finding calm through other people.
For some this means pretending,
and projecting life as before
but with the content diminished
hidden in pro-forma chores
like sending Christmas cards.
For me this change marks
the 'no return' point, in the season
of good will. Where I stop responding
to the empty, synthetically generated,
custom of greetings and meetings
empty of intent. For both good or ill.
Finding the still point in the emptiness
of human business is not the end.
Seeking stillness, amid the busyness,
is where to seek to Be, beyond definition.
