Letting go of Little Pieces

"Little pieces falling in the dust

Little pile of ash we don't need

Just leave it to be taken upon the breeze

 "Pieces falling from me

You can have them for free

I've never felt so complete

Pieces falling from me"

            Little Pieces - Gomez

I've listened to this song a dozen times but when I actually bothered to hear it I adopted it as my new theme song. Pieces falling from me. Let them fall off. Let it go. Let. It. Go...

It's so simple! Why have I never thought of this before!!!!

Because, learning to let go isn't as simple as it sounds. Physical pain is easier to learn from. For example. I know where to stop the curling iron in relation to my neck. Burning my neck hurts and the skeptical looks while explaining it's NOT a hickey are embarrassing. I don't want to do that again. Emotional pain is harder to learn from and let go of. At least for me. I hold on to that shit like a dog to a bone! And the person I hurt the most is me. So I'm going to let those pieces go.

While Gomez cheers me on.
