to pause and smell the flowers and be GRATEFUL.
They are shining in my garden right now.
Having worked for the company that has the slogan "Just
Do It". Plus always having dreams
and working to achieve those dreams, my attitude was always one of "Just
Do It". Just make it happen for you
know there are ways of getting it done.
So it was a bit of a surprise to myself when recently I had a dream that
woke me during the night and left me with the message, "Let it
Go". Now this isn't an easy one to
face, but I believe it came from having to do very little for 6 weeks while I
recuperated from surgery. I could see
the dust bunnies floating on the floor and I knew so much wasn't getting done,
especially to my standards. I still have
dreams and things I want to do; but that message kept coming,
"Let it Go". I don't like it,
really I don't. In all my years I
haven't had to think in this direction.
I am struggling with it. I know
there are still dreams to come true and places to go; but I also know there are
some things I need to let go. So riding
along with my word for this year of "Grateful" is coming "Let it
Go". Where this will take me, I am
not sure; but I have some mighty lessons to learn this year, lessons I am not
sure I want to learn. A different
direction I may be headed. The journey
will be full of surprises, delights, frustrations, and even anger. Not something I usually mention here, but
some days are just like this and we learn, we turn, and move forward into new
avenues of life. I need to open my heart
to what is coming and just let other things go.
Round and round we go, where we end nobody knows. Will there be surprises, will there be
frustrations, heck yeh! But now I will
be watching and noticing, for life is a delightful journey and sometimes I have
to learn to "let it go".
Do you find there are days where you just have to "let it go"?
