(no subject)
so i decided to go for a long run and to a meeting instead of dwelling on how bad i felt last night. and wouldn't you know the topic was on losing our attachment to people and things! how incredibly applicable!
there's the stolen laundry, ollie's move, and the 4th anniversary of amanda's death on friday.
and also there was an emphasis on letting go of the worry over what people think of us. in other words, i can't control if ollie thinks i'm not so fun since i don't drink. it's been super hurtful that she hasn't prioritized me but i have to let go of that, which is pretty liberating.
and into that i want to add a bit of gratitude, so it's all about letting go and being thankful for the lessons or experiences. i feel really blessed to have had connections to ollie and amanda, not everyone meets folks like them or has such an incredible bond as i was lucky enough to share with them. as for the letting go of things bit that has been really wonderful too, i have been able to for once and for all get rid of a bunch of crap that's been weighing me down since, oh, the mid 90's.
