No Hope, No Fear: On Radical Acceptance

Fear occurs when I fixate on a future of bad outcomes.

Hope occurs when I fixate on a future of good outcomes.

Both fixations indicate I cannot accept the present moment.

In hope or fear, I do not dwell in my breath, in this present moment.

Without fear and without hope, I can achieve clarity.

Without fear and without hope, I can find compassion.

Without fear and without hope, I can find complete acceptance of that which is.

What does it feel like to accept a present without hope and without fear?
