Letting Go

Happy New Year

This is take stock time.

And I think, for me, it is letting go time.

There are many things that I've been holding onto and this is the year that I am going to let go.

I felt it in Advent when I was getting ready for Christmas and I feel it now that we have begun the New Year.

This blog started with words, has been transformed by words, the words that change the moments of my life. And the things that I want to let go of are represented by words.

Then what is left will be that which is most important.

Here are a few of the words:

stuff...that I don't need

fear...where there is fear there is no faith

worry....same as fear

friendship...that doesn't seem quite as friendly as I once thought

food...that doesn't make me feel healthy and good

habits...bad ones

pounds...like stuff in a way

books...that don't represent what I believe

There may be more but this is a good start.
