Letting Go....

Let it Go
by Danna Faulds

Let go of the ways you thoughts life would unfold;
the holding of plans or dreams or expectations-
Let it all go. Save your strength to swim with the tide.
The choice to fight what is here before you now will
only result in struggle, fear and desperate attempts to
flee from the very energy  you long for. Let go.
Let it all go and flow with the grace that washes through your days
whether you receive it gently or with all your quills raised to defend
against invaders. Take this on faith; the mind may never find the
explainations that it seeks, but you will move forward nonetheless.
Let go, and the wave's crest will carry you to unknown shores, beyond your wildest
dreams or destinations.  Let it all go and find the place of rest and peace
and certain transformation.



This has always been one of my favorite readings.  I struggle more than most with 'letting go...'
Friendships, homes, pets, relationships, jobs, cities... all of it. I hold on more than I need to.
The funny thing is - I have 'let go' eventually - more than most. I guess I just need alot
of practice.

It never gets easier. This letting go....
But I am trying to learn, to trust, to surrender and to believe.....
