This is where I am tonight. Warm cuppa tea, feet up, dog by my side. Sometimes, I say sometimes, a girl just gots to reflect on what’s important. Like North Korea. Syria. Monsanto. Or, in my current state…what’s on HGTV tonight.
Sometimes a girl just gots to be chill.
Because I’m not going to save the world with anger, no matter how righteous. My signature on your petition doesn’t mean squat. I cannot rescue every dog, save every child or say anything that would change a politician’s vote.
But I can make the world a little better.
Really, I can….
By letting go… Just. Letting. Go… of that over which I have no control.
Poof… just like that.
Which frees me to paint.
And love.
And see things with an artist’s eyes.
Including that which is good.
Namaste, sweetums. Namaste.
Appreciating your words. How easy it is for us to forget that being kind to ourselves by letting go of that which we cannot control anyway automatically improves our life. 🙂
Thank you Bonnie 🙂 I learned the hard way, after years of banging my head against the proverbial brick wall. Sometimes I still do but I’ve found love trumps fear any day. 🙂
