We can make well-being conditional: first the conflict must end, the work must be finished, and uncertainty must disappear. Then, we imagine, we can finally be well.

Some conditions genuinely call for time, support, resources, or change. It is still useful to notice when every unresolved issue becomes a prerequisite for any steadiness at all.

Accepting that a situation is present does not mean approving of it or abandoning action. It means we can stop arguing with the bare fact of what is here long enough to decide what to do next. In severe distress, this may be difficult, and no one should be told that a change of attitude is enough.

Not every unfinished matter has to occupy the whole field of experience. Sometimes a moment of well-being is available while real work remains.
