Constant change

Change is our constant companion. Yet much effort is spent in trying to control change although it is the very basis of life itself. Every life form faces the same destiny yet it is not thoroughly understood that it is a fundamental force that touches every appearance we encounter. One can not be alive experiencing the awareness of emptiness without also comprehending that everything changes constantly. It is the basis of every moment and endeavor. Including art, medicine, science, consumption, fear and surprise.

However we do not need to fear its motion and authority: We can open our mind to embrace change and become joyful. To abandon all hope and fear and live within the unity of all things and the wonder of being awake.
