There are a lot of ideas piled on
our shoulders that are not ours.
They were placed there by other people.
We love to pass on our ideas to others:
This is what it is; this is how it is.
Let go of these ideas. They are not yours.
What is your own idea? It is the same one you've always had—to be happy.
That’s your idea. And you don’t have to let go of that.

-Prem Rawat
