What is a lesson in life that keeps coming up for you?
My perpetual lesson has been exercising the art of “letting go.”
Why do I refer to it as an art?
It’s because letting go often gets mistaken for disconnection. I see letting go more as detachment from the outcome of a situation vs. being disconnected and uncaring about a situation or outcome.
You can very much care about what’s going to happen and still exercise grace in your approach to how that situation reveals its outcome. This is how I define the art of letting go.
It takes great self restraint to practice patience and peace in awaiting an outcome.
What I find amazing is that if I’m conscious of practicing grace, patience and peace, at some point the outcome loses its power over me which then allows me to accept things the way they are. Ironically, as soon as I am able to accept what is happening the way it is happening naturally, everything shifts and change occurs.
Perks of being a counselor: Knowing that if I’ve done my part to the best of my ability and within the scope of my power, the rest is not up to me. There is a certain peace in taking a step back and watching the events in the universe unfold in their own time.
