After this cartoon went out in the newsletter earlier this year, we received a number of emails from people asking for female version. Here it is!

I think the Buddhist in me came out in this one. So much human suffering is tied to hanging on to things; material, emotional, or otherwise.

I believe that happiness comes from inside us – We often forget that, and spend a lot of time blaming other people for our unhappiness.

The commentary on the original image read:

“If you’re unhappy, nine times out of ten it’s because you’re clinging onto something.

Nine times out of ten, happiness and letting go are synonymous.”

Exactly.
