And oddly enough at the same period of time, 30 years. Sometimes where we end up when we finally know ourselves is not the choice we want. But, seven years later I can look back and know it was the right choice. It can sound trite when we say it aloud but it is true- sometimes the greatest love we show is knowing when to let go. If you can, stay friends and avoid bitterness. My thoughts and best wishes are with you.Georgaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915701701676619963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940606682656797168.post-61448587765406445762010-10-18T16:08:59.228-05:002010-10-18T16:08:59.228-05:00One thing I have discovered about walking a path--...One thing I have discovered about walking a path-- if I look down at my feet, I move more and more slowly and become more and more unsure, tentatively checking each rock for a wiggle before I step on it, testing for slipperiness before I commit to a step.<br /><br />And despite all that care and caution, watching each step always leads to more stumbles, more tripping over roots, more near ankle twisting. <br /><br />But when I raise my eyes and get lost in what's ahead or above or around me, and stop even thinking about the path, my feet take care of the walking all by themselves.<br /><br />It always works. <br /><br />And yet, still, it's not easy to trust my own self enough to give up control.<br /><br />Much love to you, Laura, as you follow your path. You will know the way to go, whatever direction it may take.nature_loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08087396232554141038noreply@blogger.com
