You can't sleep away your problems...they'll still be there when you wake up
You can't eat away your problems
You can't smoke away your problems
You can't drink away your problems
You can't f**k away your problems
You can't shop away your problems
You can't talk away your problems
You can't wish away your problems...ad infinitum the crutches we've been believing in vainly
But this is what we are all trying to do
All our life.
Face them...
And you'll see them for what they are..
Before your calm and focussed attention
They lose their power to intimidate you...
For you've found yourself
You've thrown away your crutches
And learnt to rest in your own self
Your breath.
Your attention.
You're free
