“Spiritual practice is the process of coming to see our misknowledge and letting it go, to begin to experience, accept, and live the truth about how we and the world actually are. When we begin to understand and to live this way, there is a great decrease in fear and dread, so common in human experience, caused by the huge gap between our expectations and the way things actually are. With an appreciation of the empty nature of things, there are no more foiled expectations. There is a lot more joy, peace, and love.” -Norman Fischer

this quote resonates for me so deeply, especially today. something that i am noticing is that the more i fear mistakes, the more i seem to make. thank you for inspiring me to shift my focus to the joy, peace, and love!
I love this quote – thank you

I wrote an essay this week about letting go of things – in fact I gave a vanload of furniture and things to a friend. Hard to let go, but I feel better afterwards. Love the letters photo. xo
