Dear younger me...

I heard this song for the first time about a month ago and from that moment it became one of my new favorites.  On several occasions, I have listened to it on repeat as I drove home.

What would I tell myself?  What would I change?

As the song says "Do I give some speech about how to get the most out of your life. Or do I go deep and try to change the choices that you'll make cuz they're choices that made me?" 

I can't decide.

But, as I consider the issues still facing the current me--I would say, remember to breathe.  To love.  To not be afraid to let go.  To continually trust that God has you.

"Even though I love this crazy life
Sometimes I wish it was a smoother ride"


I am in the midst of a major transition.  About to start over in a new (albeit temporary) place where no one knows me or who I used to be.  And I've come to realize that one of the "problems" with attachment is that it's painful.  No longer can I just walk away and not look back.  So, I have to trust--trust in the relationships that I risked to build.  And I have to let go and let God do His thing.  Things will change.  And it will be as it is supposed to be.
