Sanity, is not an achieved state of mental health, 
it is a constant practice, 
and the losing of sanity 
is not the domain of the mad or senile. 
It is the everyday predicament we fall into, 
when in our anger, 
or our wholesale attachment 
to the thoughts and feelings, 
we lose perspective and we suffer 
a kind of forgetfulness 
of what truly matters most.
