Sometimes we find ourselves in a hurry, impatiently waiting for something to happen or to come into our lives, and it can be hard. When we peel back the experience though, what is causing the suffering is always our resistance to what is.

Life gives us opportunity after opportunity to practice Letting Go, doesn't it? We let go as our lives change from one season to the next. As parents, we may want to cling to something about one phase or another as our children grow up. Infants are so tiny and precious!
