Hey Fool.
I used to care too much, but then likened my relationship with life to a weirdo socially unintelligent person who never stops chasing people that don’t like them back– and now I’m letting go.
The ability to let go of control when one wants it most, this skill—is one of the most important skills anyone can develop.
Pursuing happiness moves you away from it.
Trying to be less emotional, makes you even more emotional.
The desire for greater freedom is often what causes us to feel trapped. The need to find our passion prevents us from loving and accepting the present.
There seems to be some weird law of nature, but from what I’ve gathered– just like with dating, if you take your desperate ass to life, she’ll laugh at you awkwardly and move away.
You’ve got to be cool, and the only way to do that is to LET GO.
It’s simple, but hard AF.
I’m starting with stoicism.
In acknowledging we are limited and here for a very short time, it becomes easier to relinquish control, not because you feel powerless, but because you are powerful.
Because you decide to let go of things that are beyond your control.
You decide to accept that the only thing you have control over is your mind, everything else is not your problem, worry, or concern.
