Put One Foot Forward and Let Go With the Other


(Translated by Mike Lee, Northern CA)

The meaning of "Put one foot forward and let go with the other" is: let go of what is in the past and focus attention upon what needs to be done in the present. Master Cheng Yen realized that life is extremely brief and that our life in this world must not be wasted. So she encourages everyone to speed up their pace and make good progress. We must not procrastinate or delay. When the foot in front has already landed, don't refuse to let go with the other one.
