Growth

I was an anxious child.
I remember going on family vacations and not being able to really pay attention to where we were or what we were seeing because of all that I had brought with me:
Worry, worry, worry.
It took so much time and so many years and so much help and unraveling the giant puzzle of my brain before I could finally, finally, go on a family vacation and BE THERE—unplugged from the world and the cares of it.
Now we go regularly and I lose myself in different ways, staring at the scenery or watching my own children in their freedom through my lens. In those moments I simultaneously claim, I reclaim, and I also
Let it go, let it go, let it go. 💛
