Craving, greed and ignorance the roots of Suffering,
That is why in Buddhism,
We practicing to let go and selflessness,
Craving and greed desires could make us restlessness,
making us afraid that the things we get might be gone.
Afterall,
the practice of letting go and selflessness to curb the desire of craving and greed,
doesnt mean that we should be a walking corpse
who does not give any care of what is happening around us
does not want anything
or gives everything away without concerning ownself
And we think that these are the good ways of curbing our craving,
They are very far from the meaning of practising letting go.
The nature of this universe is change
Things keep changing
Means that the things we have today will not be in the same condition tomorrow.
so does what we used to have yesterday are not the same as what they appeared today.
"Letting go" doesnt mean we should not accept the things we got
or ignore the things we having
It is basically remind us that we accept things and use them in the right ways BUT with the understanding of the impermanence nature.
It also telling us that we should be ready all the time to be willingly giving them out for others who are in more needy conditions.
So,
when the things come in our hands,
We should be able to welcome and appreciate the moments of having them
Take good care of them
When it is time for the things to leave
Let them flow away without heart attachment

"Letting go"
In "Letting Go"
We know how to accept it
how to appreciate it
AND
how to let it go.
