Greatest Good

Is it cynical to say that the greatest good is not what is happening here?
That dreams and daydreams are massed attachments.
Where is it written that I get what I want?
It is a fearful thought that the outcome must please me.
Whatever positive spin I put on "what is,"
it refuses the faithful interpretation.
Of course everything is for the greatest good, if good is defined as what unfolds.
Dream your dreams, and wish on stars, if you must.
There is comfort in knowing that the energy that creates this life,
drives it, interprets it, and finally, lays it down, on time, for its own reasons.
