Letting Go

"Letting go necessitates being with the fear that comes when we become aware that all that we love in the world- our very life itself- is impermanent.   It can bring tremendous relief and rest to let go where we are trying to hold on, trying to keep the same things which by their very nature are constantly changing.   This does not mean loving life and the world less fiercely.   Loving well and living fiercely are not the same as holding on."  Rachel Naomi Remen
