Know Thy Self


What do I feel? Anxious? My mind tells me that all is well. I realize that as things stand, things are pretty good. Nothing really to worry about. I know that that which causes me to be anxious, is mostly illusion. The worst will not be that bad, and in any case it will pass. This my mind tells me. This I can say I know. Yet I still have a lingering feeling of anxiety. It is absolutely fascinating. My mind is in one state, but my body is in another. I know what it is that is causing me anxiety, and I know why it should not. My thoughts are peaceful and clear, but my body is stressed. My mind knows that all is well and that all will be well - I just don't know how to make my body believe it. Absolutely fascinating!
