Letting Go

I've got this drive. A drive to make sense of things... to move ideas into action... to solve problems... to make things better.  I'm driven to act, in spite of anticipated challenges, when I'm clear on what I want or what I need.  This is good, mostly, but not so good when my drive is not enough. I'm learning that big dreams, the ones that make my heart flutter, require the exact opposite of me – the one thing that is most difficult for me. They require me to just have faith and let them go.

Boy, you are speaking my truth today- I dream big, really big- then I am impatient when I don't see my dreams come to fruition right away, or I begin to question if I can make it happen at all- God forbid sit tight and allow things to unfold in due time- faith is something that I have to put effort into every day- it is interesting though, when I reflect on the times when things have worked out better than I could have planned, I realize that those were the times when I got out of God's way and had faith- by the way- boy is she your mini me! I will be traveling home for 3-4 weeks this summer, let's get together and relive some junior high school days? (or not) or sip wine, catch up and dream- :-)

This photograph is my favorite of yours so far. What a beautiful image. So white and pure... and thinking.
