Before awakening we were so sure,
So certain of what thought we knew,
Especially in the stormiest of seas.
We dealt with life
By emotionally battling every day
Like Jackie Chan on steroids.
In awakening, we become unsure, uncertain, vulnerable.
While the boat continues to be rocked and tossed,
How do we adjust to the push-pull buffeting
Of the world around us?
With impeccable self-honesty,
Genuine trust,
And open-hearted surrender.
Behind such scary vulnerability
You will find the effortless invincibility you've been looking for.
