when there is anger (or joy, or whatever might be) <br />one does not look for the opposite <br />one does not seek to control or suppress <br />but one sees what is, observes it <br />sees it, as it is, with no judgment; <br />and one understands that which is there <br />and so one has no theories <br />and a history and a future and a past; <br />and one is not drawn to charming philosophies <br />or lofty schemes and grand heaven-ascending plans <br />proffered most seductively or threateningly… <br />and so one sees as things are<br /><br />Raj Arumugam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/seeing-things-as-they-are-2/
