The world is so broken and sometimes it leaves you cold. And at times you can’t feel the fire to guide you home. The demons will haunt you and try to steal what you know. But the angels, they brought you, and they’re gonna hold you up. They’re gonna hold you up. They see the fear in your eyes, heart sinks like a stone. ‘Cause when you’re afraid, it weighs on your soul. It’s not easy, no. Finding the words to say. When you’re feeling lost, you’ll find your way. ~Shane Haper
Yielding like the earth,
Joyous and clear like the lake,
Still as the stone at the door,
He is free from life and death.
His thoughts are still.
His words are still.
His work is stillness.
He sees his freedom and he is freed.
The master surrenders his beliefs.
He sees his freedom and he is freed.
The master surrenders his beliefs.
He sees beyond the end and the beginning.
He cuts all ties.
He gives up all his desires.
He resists all temptation.
And he rises.
~The Dhammapada
