Clearing


Impermanence has struck again. The logger cut down 6 trees yesterday, and my side "yard," which was really only an herb garden, is now quite spacious and airy.

Sometimes, it's time to clear away portions of our life--relinquish a toxic relationship, turn loose of some responsibilities or a volunteer job, renounce an addictive habit, opt out of e-mail newsletters.

Even though letting go is difficult, we are rewarded with a feeling of "Ahhh." Now we can breathe again. Now we can see the forest for the trees.

In my side yard, some trees have been sacrificed. Now i can see more clearly.
