Reflect on this: The realization of
impermanence is paradoxically the only thing we can hold on to, perhaps our
only lasting possession. It is like the sky, or the earth. No matter how much
everything around us may change or collapse, they endure.
Say
we go through a shattering emotional crises… our whole world seems to be
disintegrating… our husband or wife suddenly leaves us without warning. The
earth is still there; the sky is still there. Of course, even the earth
trembles now and again, just to remind us that we cannot take anything for
granted…

It is another day at
the I.C.U. and I’m headed up there now to see Bon Bon. I’m hoping she’ll be
improved enough to be moved to a regular room. Really…
