2023: A Year of Letting Go

This is going to be a year of letting go. I don’t know what that will look like, but I’m hoping that it will create flow and ease.

Inside of a year of letting go, I want to clean out my house and get rid of things that I am not using, including clothes, books, and other household items. I also want to let go of old habits so that I can create new ones. I want to let go of being sedentary. I need to let go of my marriage. (That's a big one.) And along the way, I will have to let go of some things, and maybe many things, every day.

I want to let go of my need to control things and arguments about that with my mom so that I can respond more positively and have the best relationship possible. 

I want to let go of resentments about being the only person who I can count on in my life. That is a source of power and I can meet that with gentle gratitude that I am able to be independent and take care of myself. 

I may need to let go of other relationships. I may need to let go of my job, and I want to let go of my dissatisfaction with my job. I need to let my son go out into the world with my full support, and without the burden of my worry and concern.

Ultimately, I want to let go of what I think I know and how I think things are. That will free me up a lot. A year of letting go. 

Next step is to attach actions to all of these things, such that if I do the actions the results will follow.
