Via Ram Dass - Love Serve Remember Foundation // Words of Wisdom - October 14, 2020 💌
In all of my actions, I do my best, but I give up the fruit of the action. If I don't know what's supposed to happen, it's probably better if I don't get too attached to one particular outcome. I listen to hear what my next step should be. I act in the best way I can. And how it comes out, well, that's just how it comes out. It's a matter of letting go of expectations.
