98


I'm grateful for the week I have been having. While not a perfect week its been a pleasant one. I am enjoying more peace and allowing life to just happen. Letting go does not mean loosing control it means releasing the thought of control. After all we can only truly control ourselves.

It is a learned process however and some just don't bother to try. I have started this climb with only one intention Getting me at a better place with me. I am accomplishing that. I've lost a lot of things trying to control and it saddens me to think of those I have hurt trying to demand it.

However the sadness I have is in no way negative. Its part of the drive to keep me focused. Knowing I have done things that I wish I had not and hurt people I wish I had not, now is used to encourages me to continue this drive to healing and now serves as another helper. It is teaching me how to not hurt others.

It reminds me to slow down and look at the reality of a situation and not my perceived reality of it. It also helps keep me humble in my thoughts. Helping me to not place myself better than others but only better than I used to be.

I'm heading to the camp today to shut it down for the season. We are supposed to have our first real below freezing snap this weekend so I want to get everything set for it.

Winter reminds us that its time to clean the fields and enjoy what we have. I have been doing this literally with my luggage. Cleaning out that which no longer serves me, Removing that which is not mine, and allowing gratitude to take their place.

In letting things go that do not serve me and are not myne I am taking back control of me. The only thing I can truly control. The process has taught me humility and has helped lighten my heart.

I'm learning to accept that which I have no control over and I am learning to accept the decision's others make. I'm learning to turn my hurt into gratefulness. Grateful that I had the opportunity to learn something. I admit I'm not always grateful especially at the moment of disappointment but I am learning who I am through them. As the process continues I improve as long as I continue to allow it.

Just ever grateful for the opportunities that present themselves to me in this life. I give thanks to the highers who are helping me to see.
