Letting Go


Ran across this from Parker Palmer. Might be a good topic for 2/7 — deeper version of the New Year’s question.

I no longer ask, “What do I want to let go of, and what do I want to hang on to?” Instead I ask, “What do I want to let go of, and what do I want to give myself to?”
The desire to “hang on” comes from a sense of scarcity and fear. The desire to “give myself” comes from a sense of abundance and generosity. That’s the kind of truth I want to wither into.

What do you want to let go of in the coming year?
What do you want to give yourself to?
What is keeping you from giving yourself fully?
