Education does not take place when you learn something you did not know before. Education is your ability to use what you have learned to be better today than you were yesterday.

It takes a lot more courage to let something go than it does to hang on to it, trying to make it better. Letting go doesn’t mean ignoring a situation. Letting go means accepting what is, exactly as it is, without fear, resistance, or a struggle for control.
