lyrics

we must try to form our perspective to best serve our ability to remain with happiness and wonder, regardless of the ups and downs of life. we are but a tiny feature of the entire body of nature, and everything that happens to us is a matter of relevance and necessity to everything beyond us. in this we must strive towards an acceptance and indifference towards everything that happens to us, and instead focus our attention on controlling our reactions to the things that happen.

the stuff we often find ourselves chasing in life, revealed to be rather petty and meaningless from a sufficient distance. we don't have much, if any control on what happens to us, how people see and treat us, nor what happens because of what we do. and in the big picture, none of it really matters all that much. and so we must define our happiness not by what we own or achieve, not by how others see us, not by some bigger picture of life, but by how we think and see our self, and live our own life through what we deem virtuous and relevant.
