Women Letting Go

In last week's excerpt from the Introduction to my book I told of my experience in San Diego when I was propelled to release  some aspects of my past and move on to liberate myself. 
The writing of my book has been a way of letting go and moving on. My goal is to use the challenging situations from my past as rungs on the ladder to realizing my goals.
To re- invent ourselves is an imperative which can only be achieved when we let go of whatever is standing in our path. The most important thing that I  have learned in the past year is that when we cling to negative incidents that have brought fear into our lives we are denying the emergence of hope.
I recently had an "Aha" moment when I read a few days ago that holding on is believing that there is only a past; but letting go is acknowledging that there is a future.
Each day as I look at the beautiful blooms in my garden I am reminded that if the frozen soil had not forsaken the ravishes of winter there would be no flowers in the spring.

Remember:

Holding on is fear. Letting go is faith!
