There are times in my life that I feel completely broken.
Like unwanted toys. Dirty, broken, worn out from a new shiny box Christmas morning, if you get what I’m saying. There are the times that I’m listening to the garbage truck that is driving its route in my head, gets to my address and unloads weeks worth of stinky, smelly, moldy, gross, nasty garbage onto my freshly mowed green grassy lawn. UGH.
Start over. Begin again.
Sifting through the garbage piece by piece to acknowledge and accept responsibility that I owe to myself in letting go of this so I can be free of it once again.
I’m worthy of doing the dirty clean-up, it’s necessary. I was on a farm recently, and was reminded of the cycle in which seasons of growth require manure to be applied to soil so the ground has nutrients to produce a field of goodness to harvest. That’s just the deal.
So I sit here and ask myself yet again, what do I need right now? Where can I remove noise? How am I preparing to sift through what isn’t true, or for me? What shifts do I need to make in order to let go?
Except this time, I acknowledge that I’m not starting from the same place. I have learned, grown, evolved and am ready to begin the cycle all over again.
