‘It’s bad, I know it’s bad,

but I keep returning to it

like my old dog going back to his vomit.’

It is not something that can be stopped,

like an unintended consequence

or a train, escaping brakeless, down a steep grade.

Chasing dreams or horses

may earn you the ‘grapes of wrath’

or a bullet to the head.

All your suffering and stress comes from not realizing that you already are what you are looking for. – Jon Kabat-Zinn
