Beautiful piece by Eckhart Tolle..
“When you have left behind the opposites created by the mind, you become like a deep lake. The outer situation of your life and what happens there is the surface of the lake. It is sometimes calm, sometimes windy and rough, depending entirely on the cycle of the seasons. But deep down, the lake is always untouched. You are the whole lake, not just the surface. You are in touch with your own depth, which remains completely still. You do not resist change by mentally clinging to a particular situation. Your inner peace does not depend on it. You remain in Being, unchanging, timeless, immortal. You are no longer dependent on the outer world of constantly changing forms for fulfillment or happiness. You can enjoy it, play with it, create new forms, appreciate the beauty of it all. But you no longer feel the need to cling to it.”
