You don’t need to look far to find books promising the ‘crushing’, ‘conquering’, ‘taming’ or ‘mastering’ of worry and anxiety. If you are amongst the many millions of people dealing with such issues I see the appeal, but why aren’t these same books bestsellers? Maybe it's because people are more savvy. Hinting at or claiming cures for anxiety is misleading. Why? Well, anxiety can’t be cured. It’s part of the human condition. It’s hard-wired, baked-in, call it what you will. Without it, we’d be in a real mess — but it can, and does, get out of control.

Perhaps all lives start as a well-constructed novel. A series of vignettes follow, some comedic, some mired in tragedy. Sometimes we try to shape our destiny, other times it shapes us. Suddenly in the blink of an eye, we enter the final run-in. For me, this late freedom is best served by poetry, life’s essence distilled. Holding close to family and friends and showing kindness to strangers and those in need.
