In the realm of restless thoughts we dwell,
Lost in anxious seas, a never-ending swell,
But let me share the wisdom, my dear friend,
From Alain de Botton’s words, a truth to transcend.

~~~~~~

“Do not be surprised that things have not gone your way,”
He declares, “the universe is greater than you,” they say,
For fret not about the past’s cruel chains,
Let go of your fears, release the pains.

~~~~~~

Anxiety’s roots in uncertainty lie,
Yet our mindset and perspective can touch the sky.
I grant myself the grace to stumble and fall,
To embrace the unexpected, big or small.

~~~~~~

I allow others not to favor my face,
In this acceptance, I find my own grace.
Let’s calm our souls, accept the truth’s embrace,
Let spilled milk go, let time and chance retrace.
