Through meditation, we're able to see clearly what's going on with our thoughts and emotions, and we can also let them go.

That in itself begins to illuminate the darkness of ignorance. We're able to see how we run and hide and keep ourselves busy so that we never have to let our hearts be penetrated. And we're also able to see how we could open and relax. — Pema Chodron
