The joy of letting go

I'm sure I've posted this before but it's been a long time. The following is undoubtedly the best quotation I know regarding impermanence and non-attachment:

He who binds to himself a joy
Does the winged life destroy;
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in Eternity's sunrise.

-- William Blake
