“Was it hard?” I ask.
Letting go?”
Not as hard as
holding on to something
that wasn’t real.

Looks like a great book. Love that quote!! 🙂
Me too…
Letting go…before the fall
will it be classified as murder at all ?
Murder, so dark
From one who sings as a lark
dark side.
hmmmm
our dark and our light are so intertwined, that by trying to push the darkness or the so-called negative aspects of our life to the side…we are preventing ourselves from the fullness of life.”

Letting go …
I ordered the book. It looks like a great summer read.
Let me know if it’s worthy please!
So true David! You drive thought stimulation this morning – but why do so many hold tight to what one cannot see? Hold to what will not be? Hold to what? Does faith now enter in? If it becomes faith then where does one place it? What is the criteria for faith? …
That’s it Bill. Right there. You nailed it.
so very true –
I have heard this quote before, and I love it. Your image brings a new light to it. You never know what you miss if you don’t at least try.
Yes. Thank you Claudia.
That is great. Truth is difficult to hold on to in the face of public criticism. Yet what a fool one would be to hold fast to a lie that is accepted as truth.
