Birds in the Heart - Wind and Wave

What we call good and bad,
gain and loss,
right and wrong
are nothing but our moods or mental states.
They are just like the wind pushing the waves,
making them go up and down in the ocean.
The wind is the "circumstantial condition."
If the mind is immersed within
"circumstantial conditions,"
pleasure and pain will follow.
Our so-called good moods and bad moods
come as a result.
