"For one who is born, death is certain; and for one who has died, birth is certain. Therefore, do not grieve over what is inevitable."
Modern explanation
As the day quiets, hold this: When you accept the worst as already woven in, the present becomes startlingly free.
Practical application
Tell one trusted person one fear you've been keeping private. Naming dissolves a great deal.
Reflection question
Where did I act despite fear today, however small?
