“It’s funny how some distance makes everything seem small and the fears that once controlled me can’t get to me at all.”

If you haven’t heard or really listened to the song Let It Go by Demi Lovato go immediately to youtube and take a listen.  Really, I’ll wait . . . .

I haven’t seen Frozen yet so this is purely just off the song itself and nothing to do with the movie.  I don’t think that a song has hit so close to home for me in a long time.  Sometimes it shocks me how someone else can write the words that speaks for my heart.  I’m sure that I am taking on meanings that are applicable to my life and how I feel but that is the beauty of music. . . it allows us to do exactly that. 

For some time now I have been contemplating letting go of some things that probably should have been let go years ago.  It is not always easy to let go and sometimes as you peel back one layer it just reveals others that also need to be released.  As I stare down the barrel of the big four-zero fast approaching in a little over a year, I know that there is no more time to procrastinate the inevitable.   

I have a list of items that I would really like to accomplish before that day arrives.  It’s kind of a big deal to me and I’m having a lot of anxiety already about it.  I need to get some things in line so that I can tackle that day with a positive attitude about the life still in front of me.

With that said and so much left unsaid, this is where I say goodbye.  After almost ten years of blogging on this site it is time to let it go.  This is one of the layers I discovered beneath something else much larger.  It has been a great outlet for me over the years and I’m sad that it is coming to an end, but I know that it is one of those things that will ultimately help me get to where I now need to be heading in life. 

Thank you to those that took the time to read and for those that would even take the extra time to comment.  It means so much to me.
