To let go means to give up coercing, resisting, or struggling,
by Jon Kabat-Zinn

To let go means to give up coercing, resisting, or struggling,
in exchange for something more powerful and wholesome
which comes out of allowing things to be as they are
without getting caught up in your attraction to or rejection of them,
in the intrinsic stickiness of wanting, of liking and disliking.

It demonstrates that we understand and accept
the fact that sometimes things must unfold in their own time.

Patience is an ever present alternative
to the mind's endemic restlessness and impatience.

and blaming someone (often yourself) or something for it.
This doesn't mean you can't hurry when you have to.
It is possible even to hurry patiently, mindfully,
moving fast because you have chosen to.
