Letting go takes a lot of courage sometimes. But once you let go, happiness comes very quickly. You won’t have to go around search for it. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
Letting go is the lesson. Letting go is always the lesson. Have you ever noticed how much of our agony is all tied up with craving and loss? ~Susan Gordon Lydon
These mountains that you are carrying, you were only supposed to climb. ~Najwa Zebian
Letting go is not the same as aversion, struggling to get rid of something. We cannot genuinely let go of what we resist. What we resist and fear secretly follows us even as we push it away. To let go of fear or trauma, we need to acknowledge just how it is. We need to feel it fully and accept that it is so. It is as it is. Letting go begins with letting be. ~Jack Kornfield
Whatever is not yours… your letting go of it will be for your longterm happiness & benefit. ~Buddha
“Being happy doesn’t mean everything is perfect, it means you have have decided to look beyond imperfections.”
If you let go a little you will have a little happiness. If you let go a lot you will have a lot of happiness. If you let go completely you will be free. ~Ajahn Chah
Nothing is permanent…
Some people think that it’s holding on that makes one strong; sometimes it’s letting go. A break up is like a broken mirror. It is better to leave it broken than hurt yourself trying to fix it. ~Unknown

Whatever there is in the mind: If our reasons aren’t yet good enough, we can’t let it go. In other words, there are two sides: this side here and that side there. People tend to walk along this side or along that side. There’s hardly anybody who walks along the middle. It’s a lonely path. When there’s love, we walk along the path of love. When there’s hatred, we walk along the path of hatred. If we try to walk by letting go of love and hatred, it’s a lonely path. We aren’t willing to follow it. ~Ajahn Chah
The movement of the heart as we practice generosity in the outer world mirrors the movement of the heart when we let go of conditioned views about ourselves on our inner journey. Letting go creates a joyful sense of space in our minds. ~Sharon Salzberg
Move on, don’t let the little things of Life hold you back. Forget, Forgive, and Move on.
