Enduring: Basically Okay

As long as
There is
Even only one being
Who is suffering,
We are all suffering

And as long as
There is
Even only one being
Who is free,
We are all free.

And yet,
We continue striving,
Keep seeking for freedom,
Keep trying to escape
From suffering,

When there is
No escape from suffering
And no need
To avoid it,

No need to
Seek freedom neither,
For it is
Impossible to avoid it;

But such avoidance
Is no problem
And such seeking
Is no problem;

There is no need
For solutions or solution-seeking
And no need
To get rid of problems or suffering,
Nor to get rid of
Trying to find solutions,
Eliminate problems and suffering.
