Floating In Clouds

I don't know, again, today, what is going on. What I do know is I have everything I need to be happy, so, ergo, I am happy. Negative thoughts still distracting, destructive emotions are still distracting, but I have no reason whatsoever to act on the basis of things like that; it will only cause more suffering and will destroy things.

Yet, things are changing right now. I'm feeling a bit of anxiety over this change, but knowing impermanence, the truth that nothing is permanent, helps lessen anxiety's hold on my mind and heart. For they are happy, but irrationality wishes to make it unhappy. Perhaps I should ponder impermanence today as part of my meditations.
