letting go

for as much as she stumbled, she's running

for as much as she runs, she still here

always hoping to find something quicker than heaven

to make the damage of her days disappear.

I cannot control other people. I cannot control how they treat me, what they say or what they do to me. But I can focus on moving forward, on finding strength and finding independence.  I can focus on believing and loving and caring deeply again with gentle love and respect. I can focus on those who love, care and respect me for who I am now. I can believe that my tender, feminine heart will be healed and that no one, no man or woman will ever be able to satisfy or comfort my heart until I learn to truly love myself for who I am.

This week, I am focusing on letting go. 

In my mind and in my heart. 

Just letting go...
