About This Quote

William Shakespeare said, "I used to have a sign pinned up on my wall that read: Only to the extent that we expose ourselves over and over to annihilation can that which is indestructible be found in us...It was all about letting go of everything." We are constantly running into problems and difficulties. But when we let go of our thoughts and focus on the present moment, we can find ourselves in a state of great happiness. By giving up completely, we can be free of our fears, worries, and obstacles.
