We’re All in the Changing

Meditation on equanimity free from attachment and hatred, since everything changes: friend, foe, or stranger it’s just a label which may change in any moment.

Lyrics

      
There’s a road where the faces fade,
Laughter echoes, then slips away.
Once a friend, now a fleeting breeze,
How strange the tides, how they shift with ease.
We hold the names like stones in hand,
But time will scatter them like sand.
We’re all in the changing, the ebb and the flow,
Today we’re together, tomorrow—who knows?
Friend, foe, or stranger, the line’s just a frame,
Beneath all the labels, we’re one and the same.
Enemies carve their mark on stone,
Yet seasons soften what’s set in bone.
The stranger’s glance, once cold and shy,
Might warm to love in the blink of an eye.
Our hearts build walls, but they’re made to fall,
What’s built today may be nothing at all.
We’re all in the changing, the ebb and the flow,
Today we’re together, tomorrow—who knows?
Friend, foe, or stranger, the line’s just a frame,
Beneath all the labels, we’re one and the same.
So let the waves pull us near, push apart,
Hold no grudges, hold no heart.
In every eye, a piece of me,
Reflections of what’s yet to be.
Equanimity, let it be our guide,
Through the turning tides, the rising skies.
For love is a circle, not bound to one name,
In the dance of the shifting, we’re all just the same.
