“Some of us think holding on makes us strong, but sometimes it is letting go.” Herman Hesse
I often write about finding lightness in life.
It can come from an unhurried but effective day at work or from uncluttering your home.
Or from learning how to let go and move on in life.
Learning to let go of a relationship, of something else in your past, of something that is just an unimportant distraction or of trying to control what you cannot control can free up huge amounts of the energy and the time you have to use for something better and more fulfilling.
“Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.” Buddha
There is only one time and place where you can be and have any control over.
The present moment.
But most of us still spend a lot of our regular days lost in memories, reliving a sunny vacation or maybe more commonly repeating an old conflict or negative situation over and over in our thoughts.
Or we get lost in scenarios about what could happen in the future. Maybe through wishful daydreams.
Especially if you’re a kid. No school and endless warm days for adventures that make fond memories.
And in today’s post I’d like to help the children in your life – or you yourself, if you’re a child or teenager – to have the best summer yet by sharing the most positive, funny and inspirational summer quotes for kids.
