My Word for 2020: Abandon

The Rocky Mountains in Colorado — author’s picture

I’ve been letting go
Opening my hands
a little here, more there,
letting cares slip through
and expectations
fall to the ground.

Giving up the need for certainty
and approval —
the grip that’s held on far too long.

Life is too short to spend time and energy on things that don’t matter. I cut the stress, slowed down, and learned the art of intentional living. Serenity now!
