Not Knowing


"In the most ordinary terms, egolessness is a flexible identity. It manifests as inquisitiveness, as adaptability, as humor, as playfulness. It is our capacity to relax with not knowing, not figuring everything out, with not being at all sure about who we are - or who anyone else is either."

- Pema Chodron

These are perfect words. It is so hard to let go, even of the "bad" things like worry, like trying to control the future. I've copied out the words to try and live by them.
