Letting go is not something you do—it happens when you stop clinging. Your life is too big to hold on to everything. To worry is to pray for something bad to happen. Other people can’t make you sad unless you hand them the keys to your heart. Your happiness will melt away if it depends on the weather. Measure less, live more. Analyzing joy chases it away. Every disappointment is a byproduct of an expectation. Anxiety is not the problem—it is a warning sign. You can either be righteous or you can be happy. Consumption turns into overconsumption once you’ve consumed enough. If you have the answer to everything, you’ll be wrong most of the time.
