Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?

- Mary Manin Morrissey

there's a book "Love is Letting Go of Fear" i forget the author, but i LOVE the book.

We can only do one thing at a time. (Even if we flicker rapidly between more than one...)

Another winner is "Peace Is Every Step" by Thit Nat Hahn.

It's about trust, huh?
