Here’s a challenge to continue working on, long after the end of this blog: learning how to embrace without grasping.

I’ve done a lot of letting go this year, though probably more of the material than the emotional kind. In the process, I think I have discovered just how much “stuff” I’ve held onto over the years, even though I no longer have any use for it in my life.

But at the same time, I think I’ve come to see more clearly some of the things (though mostly I’m not talking about things here) that I truly do value.

So is it possible to embrace without clutching too tightly?
