Quotes to ponder:

"This ideal is not helping me. Clinging to wanting things this way is actually harming me. I hereby open my heart to many more possibilities."

"Learn to see your frustration or worry about something as a signpost, a flag that tells you what’s going on."

"Loosening our attachments is about realizing that life doesn’t have to be one way, our way, that we can be open to life’s way."
