We use mindfulness to observe the way we cling to pleasant experiences & push away unpleasant ones. - Sharon Salzberg

We long for permanence but everything in the known universe is transient. That’s a fact but one we fight.

Generosity has such power because it is characterized by the inner quality of letting go or relinquishing.

The art of concentration is a continual letting go. We let go of what is inessential or distracting. We let go of a thought or a feeling, not because we are afraid of it or because we can’t bear to acknowledge it as a part of our experience; but, because it is UNNECESSARY.
