Letting Go!

Ya'll have read my words over the past few weeks as I have described the fact that I am "letting go." I have been using this term here on the blog for many things, letting go of the past, letting go of preconceptions, letting go of things that just don't matter in the long run. I heard this Tim McGraw song on the radio the other day and it just summed it up for me - so much better than any words I could think up. I wish I had written this, I don't even know who did - but the words could have come from straight from my soul. I thought the part about the rain just mirrored imaged my life a few weeks ago...amazingly!

LET IT GO!
I’ve been caught sideways out here on the crossroads
Trying to buy back the pieces I lost of my soul
It’s hard when the devil won’t get off your back
It’s like carrying around the past in a hundred pound sack

Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
I’m gonna leave it all behind
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away
Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go

Skeletons and Ghosts are hiding in the shadows
Threatening me with all the things that they know
Choices and mistakes, they all know my name
But I’m through holding in and holding onto all that pain

Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
Got No more tears to cry
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away
Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go
