"Contacts with their objects, O son of Kunti, give rise to cold and heat, pleasure and pain. They come and go and are impermanent. Endure them bravely."
Modern explanation
In the middle of the day, return to this: Feelings are weather, not climate. The strongest storm still ends.
Practical application
Pause for sixty seconds. Feel your feet on the floor. Notice that this moment is, in fact, survivable.
Reflection question
If I removed the imagined future, what's actually happening right now?
