She let go. Without a thought or a word, she let go. She let go of the fear. She let go of the judgments. She let go of the confluence of
opinions swarming around her head. She let go of the committee of indecision
within her. She let go of all the 'right' reasons. Wholly and completely,
without hesitation or worry, she just let go. She didn't ask anyone for advice
.She didn't read a book on how to let go. She didn't search the scriptures. She
just let go. She let go of all the memories that held her back. She let go of
all the anxiety that kept her from moving forward. She let go of the planning
and all of the calculations about how to do it just right. She didn't promise
to let go. She didn't journal about it. She didn't write the projected date in
her Day-Timer. She made no public announcement and put no ad int he paper. She
didn't check the weather report or read her daily horoscope. She just let go. She
didn't analyze whether she should let go. She didn't call her friends to
discuss the matter. She didn't do a five-step Spiritual Mind Treatment. She
didn't call the prayer line. She didn't utter one word. She just let go.
No one was around when it happened. There was no applause
or congratulations. No one thanked her or praised her. No one noticed a thing. Life
a leaf falling from a tree, she just let go. There was no effort. There was no
struggle. It wasn’t good and it wasn’t bad. It was what it was, and it is just
that.
In the space of letting go, she let it all be. A small smile
came over her face. A light breeze blew through her. And the sun and the moon
shone forevermore.
