Renunciation

"Children, old people, vagabonds laugh easily and heartily: they have nothing to lose and hope for little. In renunciation lies a delicious taste of simplicity and deep peace". - Matthieu Ricard

One might say its as easy as that.. however, as I have been discovering lately, its not so easy to give up the ego, which has been protective and our best friend this far to truly indulge in renunciation. Its similar to letting go and attaining freedom, but really are we ready to be free? and do we know what to do with all this freedom?
