All time is Now.    How can you lose what you still have even if it isn’t part of the immediate conciousness of the meat “you” are wearing?

Everything IS.  Therefore, all good things are Us; all bad things are Us.  There is nothing to envy or want.  Just because it isn’t part of the consciousness that is the locus that “you” consider your “self” doesn’t change that some part of “us” is enjoying/enduring whatever is wanted/feared/loved.

(Recognizing that this is said from a Locus of Comfort and that a Locus of Pain would likely want to smack me.  At the very least.)

“When William Penn was convinced of the principles of Friends, and became a frequent attendant at their meetings, he did not immediately relinquish his gay apparel; it is even said that he wore a sword, as was then customary among men of rank and fashion . Being one day in company with George Fox, he asked his advice concerning it, saying that he might, perhaps, appear singular among Friends, but his sword had once been the means of saving his life without injuring his antagonist, and moreover, that Christ has said, “he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.” George Fox answered, “I advise thee to wear it as long as thou canst.” Not long after this they met again, when William had no sword, and George said to him, “William, where is t hy sword?” “Oh!” said he, I have taken thy advice; I wore it as long as I could.”

This link says this is a Quaker fable.  That piece of information doesn’t make the story any less useful.

Do whatever it is that is fretting you for “as long as thou canst.” and when that becomes intolerable, do something else.
