I like the Lego reminder; you'd think I'd be a Letting Go Guru for all the reminders around my floor.<br /><br />I totally agree that one way Letting Go works is when you can put it off and decide later. When you know, you know. I try to remember that in my own daily struggle when I berate myself for not taking an action I have pressured myself into thinking I need to make.<br /><br />Also like your weekly recovery topic idea, may I steal, if I ever get going here?annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06110832041370137972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-201036437468822838.post-17209225490405494292011-12-12T09:58:29.431-06:002011-12-12T09:58:29.431-06:00You were forgiven from the start (as was my mother...You were forgiven from the start (as was my mother), of course. I understood your anger completely, and I appreciated it as you definitely 'had my back'!

I have always struggled with the let go let God thing. I first discovered it when Becky died and 'letting go' meant forgetting, putting it behind, not thinking about it. How could I? It seeped out of my pores. Since then, that phrase raises my hackles somehow and I always have to walk myself back.<br />I do like the idea of not having to decide something right now. I can put it off and off until it is time to decide. That sits so much better with me.<br />I am sad your mom's response was a reminder of your words. That has to be so painful and like if she was told her husband right now was doing something wrong...would she leave him too? I feel so bad that I was trying to be supportive of you and then when Sean was finally coming home my fear for you and the girls just took over and I made some comments that I wish I hadn't. I know you have forgiven me (at least I hope so) but that showed me that I can think that I am all supportive and caring and stick my foot when gut reactions kick in. <br />Thank you for an insight that I need today. Love you my friend.Yolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034035537568211287noreply@blogger.com
