Dear Controlling Girl,

Life has a way of surprising us whether we are ready for it or not…

…whether we worry our little heads off or whether we plan our fingers right down to the bone.

Even when we try so hard to control every single outcome for every single thing…life still surprises us.

Isn’t it exhausting? Wouldn’t you like to stop?

Look back on all of the times you’ve tried with all your might to hold things together, put things together and keep things together so that everything would be perfectly in place for the things you were so determined to make happen. Remember how things happened completely differently than you ever could have dreamed? But that they worked out exactly the way they were supposed to? (even if it was painful or uncomfortable?)

So….let yourself chill and be still. Let the worries go for a bit. Trust yourself. Trust the journey.

No matter what happens, you will make it and you will make it into something beautiful and wonderful….just like you always have.Surprises are fun.

You are so very loved.
xoxo
