Don't worry, everything's out of control

​My favourite Buddhist joke: “Don’t worry; everything’s out of control.”
 
And indeed, it can be easy to think that the promise of utter control and certainty would alleviate us of our stress. But in fact, it’s far more likely that the dubious quest for control and certainty is both a reflection and cause of stress and anxiety. Expect chaos and you may just find more control!
