We must let go of the life we have planned

Meaning of We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us Quote by Joseph Campbell.

What is the meaning of “We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.”

Joseph Campbell gave up the key to a happy life when he said that we must let go of the life we have planned so that we can accept the one that is waiting for us. No matter how much planning we do, how we have decided our life to take course in future, most of the times it never goes the same way. It is because there is a mightier planner who has been planning our life all along.

Time and events can’t be predicted. We never know how life is going to unfold. So, we must live in the moment and not hold on to our future plans hard and fast. We must welcome the life that awaits us with open arms, remembering that’s how it has always been meant to be. Future can’t be planned and predicted.
