Holding On

To hold onto nothing is the root of happiness and peace.

-- Angeles Arrien

It is interesting to me how often peace and happiness, though not the same thing, go together.  Not to mention (I guess I am actually mentioning it...), how so many times holding on to something is actually working against things like peace (and, likely, happiness).  The irony is that our grip tends to reveal what we believe we need to do to get peace or happiness.

The observation above reminds me of the recent All Saints Day post.
