Worth the read!!! WOW JUST WOW…”try it, I promise you’ll like it!”
July 2016…”This morning as I am blessed enough to sit on my front porch and enjoy the landscape that only God in His wisdom can create, I'm thinking about what is coming next? Will I be going from the "frying pan into the fire" or will I be creating the best of both worlds by "just letting life happen." Today, this moment, I know my life is changing, my world as I am used to will take a 90% turn and I am choosing to let that happen. I have come a long way from darkness into the light and will not allow my future to walk backwards. The days of "OMG what will I do" can still come up every now and then, but now they have become "OMG" what are we going to next! ??? Change is the only thing that is constant and we either change too, or end up living in regret. I try each and every day to not let the "coulda, woulda, shoulda, be part of any decision or factor in my "here and now." NOTE...Living in the light is most certainly not throwing causion to the wind! It is choosing to live by listening to your message, using your intellectual mind and going with your gut instincts. Learning to "let it be" is actually opening your world to opportunity, some wrong turns, adventure and enlightenment. I stand in the light and look forward to "what happens next!!" Try it, I promise you'll like it!”
Fast forward 5 years…life has bitten us all in the ass…
what my Gods plan has been…life has unfolded in pieces…I’ve moved from my beautiful front porch that took 2 horrendous moves in 13 month’s, I’ve had moments so beautiful they are forever stamped in my heart! A favorite memory, like seeing my daughter walk up the isle on her dad’s arm to a wonderful man, a daughter’s surprise, cross country move and a happy engagement to a kind, respectful man. How about all the stupid ridiculous body not working right issues! Throw in a pandemic, leaving us stifled, shut down, closed off and still angry! And the worse…baring of such a painful loss that we still cannot wrap our head and hearts around that continues to hurt. All with seeing and “knowing” that change was coming. The feeling continues to have you & I, watching and waiting for the “other shoe to fall”.
Here is the past and present colluding, I stand by living in the light and being open to “letting life happen!”
2021 the here and now…
“Let it be” by the Beatles runs through my head and the words of wisdom are what we need now more than ever…let life happen, say what you mean and with that truth even if it’s ugly be kind, love with your whole heart, remember to listen, listen and let it be!
