As I listen,
in tears,
I am thankful, and in agreement.
Emphatically in agreement and grateful.

As always you’re so on it. I am a total control freak. A lot of it has to do with not letting go of things. I’m from the school of thought where “if you want something done right, do it yourself”. So, I carry on carrying the load all the time then complain of having too much. It’s all about fear. It’s all about fear of allowing someone else being recognized or getting credit for something I did. Fear, Fear ,Fear. I need to surrender. As you said, I have notice in my life, things have a way of working out. It may not take the shape and form that I perceived, but it is what I can handle at the time. I am slowly learning to let go and let God–surrender. I know from a Buddhist perspective when things are in rhythm. The rhythm comes naturally and freely and not when I say it should. I’m learning that being a “control freak” is not exactly something to be proud of. I’m starting to let go. The load has been blessedly lifted and it feels good. It’s a work in progress and it is coming along fine. Again, thank you so much.
