Today, I will let go. I will stop trying to control everything. I will stop trying to make myself be and do better, and I will let myself be.

This moment, we are right where we need to be, right where we are meant to be.

When you wonder what is coming, tell yourself the best is coming, the very best life and love have to offer, the best God and His universe have to send. Then open your hands to receive it. It's yours.

...the plan will happen in spite of us, not because of us.

I know when to say no and when to say yes. I take responsibility for my choices. The victim? She went somewhere else. The only one who can truly victimize me is myself, and 99 percent of the time I choose to do that no more. But I need to continue to remember the key principles: boundaries, letting go, forgiveness after feeling my feelings—not before, self-expression, loving others but loving myself, too.

We have as much time as we need.

Acceptance is the magic that makes change possible. It is not forever, it is for the present moment
