Oh To Be Tranquil

Oh it's so hard to be tranquil. But I'm doing the least that I can to harvest passionate experiences in the cargo-cult van. To divest of stress and worry. To divest of uncertainty and dependency. To opt instead for calmness and tranquillity, in a state of untroubled stable ataraxia*. Neither denying nor affirming anything in shadows that cross my path, beyond my control. I’ve got my stuff together, with my life back in balance, stable, serene and harmonious. ========================= * Ataraxia is an Ancient Greek term used by Pyrrho and subsequently Epicurus and the Stoics for a lucid state of robust equanimity and tranquillity when free from distress and worry. =========================
