Acceptance and letting go ...both are very hard to do sometimes.

that photo reminds me of my mom...we used to say that she dragged a little storm cloud around behind her like a favorite balloon.. it was sad that she couldn't let go of it and find more joy in her life.

I say let it go as soon as you can and watch it float away..with joy!! :)

Sharon said...

Oh, Jenny! I love this! May I share it on Facebook?

Ames said...

Very timely! My daughter and baby grandaughter left yesterday to live in New York while "daddy" works on a film. They'll not likely ever move back to Canada. I smiled and said how great it was. sigh ~ Maureen

After being a grump today for one reason or another, I'll definitely keep this with me the rest of the week.

Holding on can be a lot more painful in the long run than finally deciding to let go...it frees you in ways you never thought possible !!!

Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoriti said...

Jenny, I lost my Mom a few weeks ago so I feel like my balloon has sailed away before I was ready to let go. It was such a shock but she went peacefully so I am comforted by that. {{ hugs}}

Jo said...

sending you hugs, and peaceful thoughts ...

Leovi said...

Yes, you're quite right, we all need free even for a few moments, Greetings.

I'm struggling with that picture, as I think about where I am this year in light of our good fortune. If I'm not Julie under the Always Raining Raincloud, then who am I? and do I deserve it? I'm going to try really hard to be the person who deserves it.

Terra said...

Amazing advice and a beautiful picture. I love this.

Absolutely spot on... how easy it is to hold tightly to those things that hurt us most...

KM said...

So much truth in such a small statement.

Hi Jenny!
Very true and sometimes very hard to do! The little piece of art is nice also...
