Letting Go 28 September 2010

Tuesday am
While waiting for En, @Anne Musikschule, a magazine caught my eyes.  A day before, a friend told me " I was too hard on myself as a friend and a mommy". That statement linger in my mind. And a couple of days back, I was bruised from an unpleasant incident and was 'away' for days.  When I flipped thru the magazine, I came across this,

Letting go is not to stop caring - it means I can't do it for someone else
Lettting go is not to cut myself off - it's the realisation that I can't control another
Letting go is not to enable - but to allow learning from natural consequences
Letting go is not to admit powerless - which means the outcome is not in my hands
Letting go - is not fo fix - but to be supportive, it's not to judge - but to allow another to be a human being
Letting go is not to deny- but to accept
Letting go is not to regret the past - but to grow and live for the future
Letting go is to fear less and live more.

excerpt from The Plain Truth magazine - Jul-Aug, 2007.

Is it God helping me out here ? :)  Letting go. That's it. I AM BACK.
