So I'm sitting here thinking about how great my day is going to be while listening to Ray Lamontagne's "Trouble" as I'm sipping on my morning coffee. I have the worst possible case of bed head at the moment and my son is watching Karate Kid for the thousandth time. lol But I realize as I sit here that I haven't been this happy in a long time, it's as if my soul is at peace with the recent changes.
This weekend has been dedicated to going through all of my belongings and figuring out what is no longer needed in my life. I'm not a hoarder or anything but I have definitely been guilty of holding onto things for way too long and I can't wait to finally let go. I don't want to feel held back or tied down anymore, I want the weight to be lifted so I can have a lighter heart. I just can't stop smiling this morning, I feel so happy yet I know I have a tremendous amount of work ahead of me I know that after all the sweat and tears it will pay off in ways unimaginable. Maybe it's the beginning that is the most difficult because we have to trust that everything will work itself out and yet we don't always know what's in store for us. I want to admire my life instead of wasting time wishing I had done this or that.
I don't believe that good byes are always meant to be sad. I truly believe they can also be second chances. Second chances for us to move on, progress, grow by allowing ourselves to detach. There is no greater feeling than granting yourself the permission to have the freedom of movement. I'm able to allow myself to let go so that I can embrace the inner peace that only comes from within.
"We say we waste time, but that is impossible. We waste ourselves."
Good thinking going on here :)
