Day 28 - I Release Control
1/28/20251 min read

Letting go of control - HA! It is to laugh.
Ok, I admit, I can be a control freak. I plan everything. I have plans for next week, next month, and ten years from now. I want to know what’s happening, when, and how, so I can prepare myself.
Needless to say, it doesn’t work very well.
Yet, I still try.
Releasing control is so hard. It’s comforting to know what’s coming next, to plan everything out, to make sure everything goes our way.
But life happens. People make their own choices. The weather changes. The dog decided to chase a squirrel.
Things just don’t go the way we planned.
Sometimes the best thing we can do is let go. To trust. To believe that things will work out, even if it looks different than we wanted. We still care. We still try. But we stop fighting life. We stop fighting change. We make space for peace, joy, and unexpected opportunities.
It’s liberating. And terrifying.
I hope these affirmations help us to release control, and trust.
