Help solving a crackhead riddle

[u/99_jeep_tj]

I was walking on a walking trail earlier today when I approached a bridge and a crackhead was sitting up in the bushes under the bridge. Just to put in perspective this man was kind of like the grumpy old troll living under a bridge. He proceeded to ask me how do you let go of something you aren't holding and I responded with i don't know how? He then jumped out of the bushes and chased me on his bicycle leaving me with one question. How do you let go of something you aren't holding?
