Letting go gives us freedom,
and freedom is the only
condition for happiness. If, in
our heart, we still cling to
anything – anger, anxiety, or
possessions – we cannot be free.

My friend, I don’t believe that freedom is the only condition for happiness. I believe freedom is the best thing in life but it’s certainly not the only thing. I also do not believe if you love and enjoy your surroundings, see meaning in a photograph or love something, that that means you aren’t free. I don’t believe letting go of everything in life gives you freedom I think it leaves you with nothing. And while some may say it leaves you with everything, then those people have never had the good stuff, so they don’t know what life is really about to begin with:) Peace.
