The Litany of Gendlin:
What is true is already so.
Owning up to itdoesn'doesn't make it worse.
Not being open about itdoesn'doesn't make it go away.
And becauseit'it's true, it is what is there to be interacted with.
Anything untrueisn'isn't there to be lived.
People can stand what is true,
for they are already enduring it.

Does anyone know where in Gendlin's writings this can be found? In particular, I'm wondering if it was a poem (or "litany") originally, or if it's just been formatted that way.

Page 140 of the 2nd edition of Focusing. It was not a poem originally.
