Remember the Joke! (A Meditation)

Is it indeed so easy to blow away?
To be absorbed at last by all there is?
We make it seem so hard – or perhaps so undesirable.

WE RESIST.

Perhaps we need to believe it’s hard;
Were it to be too easy, we risk acknowledging our fragility.

Cry, however,
Cry with lifted shaken fist –
Such has always been my creed.
But even as you fight,
Even as you refuse to go quietly…

REMEMBER THE JOKE.
