Everyday Simple

Living. Growing. Loving. If only I could keep every day simple.

Letting Go

March12

No one promises that letting go is easy.  Everything out there says that simplifying our lives is the thing to do.  Once we hear a call, we have a choice whether or not to follow it.  Following it doesn’t promise to be easy.  In fact, taking the scenic route through a Life well lived will undoubtedly be way more difficult than staying on the Interstate of life.

I had to take a step yesterday that was bittersweet.  I didn’t want to let go of something that I think is so important, of work that I know needs to be done.  However, I promised myself I would bring focus to my journey.  If I’m going to do something, I want to do it well.  We like to say we don’t do anything half-ass around here (“single-cheeked,” if the kids are listening).  If we’re going to talk the talk, we have to walk the walk.  That’s a lesson learned and lived while in the desert, right?  No time like the present.

So, if I’m going to do something, I’m going to do it well.  I wish the same for you.
