Mysteriously, Wonderfully,
I bid Farewell to what Goes,
I Greet what Comes;
for what comes cannot be denied,
and what goes cannot be detained.
~ Chuang-Tzu

I find so much wisdom in this -- mysteriously, wonderfully I say goodbye to what goes, I greet whatever is next.
What a beautiful way to describe impermanence, which is permanent!
