Today I am aware that it is more difficult to let go of a painful, dysfunctional situation or relationship than a happy, healthy one. When a relationship or situation is going wrong, I become entangled in the mess, always feeling that if I did just a little bit more, if I tried a little harder, if I changed something . . . then it would work. When I come from this insecure place, it really never does work out . . . all of my frantic efforts only serve to complicate an already complicated situation and my best intentions fall on deaf ears. Letting go does not mean losing; it simply means that I am willing for change to occur. Sometimes the change is so subtle I only know it took place because I feel better; sometimes it is more pronounced.

I can let go and allow movement to occur.

If error is corrected whenever it is recognized as such, the path of error is the path of truth.
