Letting Go
I have never been one who has been good at picking my battles. Every fight was worth it to me, even if it cost me my peace. I would argue the little things, the big things, things that don't matter in the long run, leaving little energy for the things that do. A gentle reminder I have been receiving the last several years is "let it go". I'm not talking Frozen (though you're welcome for that song being stuck in your head now). I'm talking really letting it go. Being a type A personality and a slight control freak (Mr C's opinion is invalid here), letting go is NOT my forte. Trust is not something that comes easily. I've walked through life for many, many years expecting to be let down, because that's just what happens. People let you down. So the thought of relinquishing control (even any semblance of control) is extraordinarily difficult. So imagine God, a seemingly invisible being, asking me to let Him take care of things. Hahaha, um, yeah righ...
