Nothing Can Be Taken Seriously

I may have a solid home but I look around. Light, sky, and everything in nature is changing. Ice forms and cracks form in the ice. It is clear that my house and body-mind are also changing.

Nothing can be taken seriously for in an instant it is gone.

I can only “be” and “do”. How can I not “be” or “do”?

I can’t “be” seriously as “being” transcends seriousness. However, I can “do” seriously, such as my job and the honouring of commitments. I just don’t have to take anything seriously.
