Today's Lesson?

The morning has been one of frustration, disappointment and disturbance. This is happening a lot lately, and if there’s a lesson to be taken, it would appear to be:

Relinquish control. Sow a thousand seeds, but have no expectations. If one of them grows, accept it with equanimity; not as the gift of some nameless God, but as random rain falling from the clouds of time. Make the effort and be content with the consequences.

Can I do this? I’ve had no practice, dammit. It isn’t how we’re brought up to see things, is it?
