Stand Like the Headland

Be like the promontory against which the waves continually break, but it stands firm and tames the fury of the water around it.

Some seasons bring waves: pressure from work, family or your own restlessness. A chart can name the season; it does not decide how you stand in it. You can choose one steady place and keep returning to it.

Choose one anchor for today: a walk, a set bedtime, a slow meal. Keep it at a fixed time, whatever else moves around it.
