renee's thoughts worth catching
I will not bore you with words
that are to reside the past
I'd rather bring the light forward
to show you how Life changes fast
when you are on a ride of remorse
and going down the slide of guilt
holding onto pain from divorce
and feeling your insides tilt
you are cheating yourself
of being completely here
your determination can tell
how to move past all of the fear
life is a long story built from creation
there are twists, turns and setbacks
forward movement and dedication
being spun around to the better track
through the love we feel deep inside
we are able to see the world's reflection
of heart whispers and love we decide
and we realize it's all about perception
focusing on the creation of gorgeousness
and allowing Life to do its remarkable thing
brings us to a state of immense loveliness
we are blessed daily by what Life does bring
bring dreams to life and hold a high standard
turn the wheel and inspire amazing moves
we follow this and then we can edge forward
and you realize you don't have anything to prove
believe in the best version of who you are
trust that your identity is not just your story
take a chance and wish upon a star
this Life is meant to take you to pure glory

Letting Go... Release
There is such a calmness about choosing to hang out. There is a wonder in seeing the world from a different angle. When there is a freedom from everything carried on a daily basis, and the view is flipped, there is such a sweet release and a moment of deep breaths. This all leads to a quiet understanding that this is the break that has been a long time coming.
The enlightenment received from being at peace and being happy by going against the grain is about the best there is. There is such a relief because finally things are being let go and it is okay to do so. Also, things are being looked at from a different angle and problems can often be solved faster because of this.
So I am learning – to leave the past in the past. I am learning it is going to be okay and my world will not end if I just release the hold. Resistance to being off the hook is strong but I have determined that I am stronger.
Anne Partain put it beautifully. And it was a major A-ha moment for me. “I think letting go means trusting the outcome to the Source.” (and put whatever word for Source in there that feels right to you: Life, God, Spirit, the Goddess, Divinity, you get the point). Isn't that just a beautiful way of looking at it? It definitely spoke to me and I have had an easier time letting go ever since.
I do not claim to know all of the answers. But what I do know is there is so much that I do not miss that I thought at one point I could not live without. For instance, I thought I would go belly side up when we stopped subscribing to cable television. But I didn't. And I know, in this day and age, you can still watch a lot streaming, but not all. And I don't feel as though I am missing out. I have moved past so many excess things I thought I had to have and I am better because of it.
What do you need to release?
