At the foot of the wall

I am impotent in the face of the world
Friends, family innocents and myself are subject to the whims of fate, sickness and the evil of other men.
Some turn to religion. Fine
Some turn to drugs. Fine if you want to make things worse.
I stand at the foot of the vast wall of the world, made from my own fears and anxieties. Made from those things I have no control over that weigh me down.
What I strive to find is a way past the wall.
A way to see the truth. That the world doesn't matter. Sickness doesn't matter. Pain doesn't matter. Evil doesn't matter. Good doesn't matter. All of these things are my perception of the world. All that matters is the now. All that matters is  how I perceive it all.
If the wall has weight, it is because I believe it has weight. If there seems to be no door it is because I think there is no door.
Yes, I am impotent in the face of the world. But that's just my perception.
Building a door is my goal.
