Life is unexpected

Letting go. We all have things we need to let go of; things we need to forgive people for and things we need to be forgiven for. But letting go is so much more than that (though that is huge in itself). Letting go means relinquishing control, trusting others to get things done, to take care of you, to have a plan. It means not always knowing exactly how things are going to pan out and being okay with that; being able to go with the flow without having it rub you the wrong way. The next time something doesn't go exactly as planned, don't sweat it; look at the beauty of the new situation, of life's unexpectedness. See what you can learn and enjoy from the life that is happening rather than the life you planned.
