Learning To Let Go

“I’m a planner,” I say. The voice leaving my lips sounds more like a resolution than a declaration of fact. All my life I’ve worked to be the type of person who has it all together, checked the little boxes, walked forward with her head high. I’ve always taken pride in knowing, without a doubt, where I was going. I always, always had a plan.

Until I didn’t.
