It seems as if the more we let go, the more we experience love. Love is beyond everything else — anxiety, desire, hope, resentment. Love is openhearted, demands nothing, and needs nothing. It is more likely to visit when our desires are quiet, when we don't need or want much, and when we accept that everything we love is not permanent but is with us at this very moment.
— Daniel Gottlieb, Learning from the Heart
