LUANG POR TEERA: Sometimes we wake with anxiety.

An edgy energy.

What will happen today?

What is in store for me?

So many questions.

We want resolution,

solid earth under our feet.

So, we take life into our own hands.

We take action, yeah?

Our solutions are temporary.

They are quick fix.

They create more anxiety, more suffering.

There is no resolution to life's questions.

It is easier to be patient

once we finally accept

there is no resolution.
