Letting things go

I think I must be mostly turtle. Hanging on comes naturally for me.

My grandson asked a cousin who owns a snake what it eats. When she answered rats, he asked why she fed a pet to a pet. She reponded that rats stink and snakes don't. I think my grandson is still thinking about this one.

Back to the turtle. I am finding that I am having trouble letting go of things. Why is it that we can't be at the moment what we wish we had been years later?

Just a thought
