"It’s very hard to grow, because it’s difficult to let go of the models of ourselves in which we’ve invested so heavily."

Ram Dass (via spiritd3sire)

This is hugely important to me. You have to be willing to let go of who you were in the past. Often that means letting go of the lifestyle and people and places that defined who you were. I’m not saying you should leave things you love. I’m saying you should be willing to abandon things you don’t love anymore.
