<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It was such a shock after working so hard for so long that I
found myself back at what seemed like square one of recovery. Relapse/a breakdown

<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Something that has always been authentically me is my
admiration of Mariah Carey and her amazing voice. Music Box was the first album
I listened to when I was around 9 years old and I remember sitting on my bed in
astonishment at the notes she could reach and from there my love of her music
grew and grew.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I remember carrying her Number
1 Hits cassette in my ‘Walkman’ and listening to it at high school – dreaming of
another place. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was not a really sick
girl being bullied – I was with Mariah in a field of daisies singing ‘Dreamlover’. Hehe!
Music is invaluable in this way – it can soothe and save you in the most
unexpected ways and I am so thankful. </span></em></div>

<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She let go. </span></em></h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Without a thought or a word, she let go.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She let go of the fear. She let go of the judgments. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She let go of the confluence of opinions swarming around her head. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> She let go of the committee of indecision within her. </span></em></div>

<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She let go of all the ‘right’ reasons.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Wholly and completely, without hesitation or worry, she just let go.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t ask anyone for advice. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> She let go of all of the memories that held her back. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> She let go of all of the anxiety that kept her from moving forward. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She let go of the planning and all of the calculations about how to do it just right.</span></em></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t journal about it. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t write the projected date in her Day-Timer. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She made no public announcement and put no ad in the paper. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t check the weather report or read her daily horoscope. </span></em></div>

<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t analyze whether she should let go. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t call her friends to discuss the matter. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t do a five-step Spiritual Mind Treatment.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> She didn’t call the prayer line. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">She didn’t utter one word. She just let go.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">No one was around when it happened. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">There was no applause or congratulations. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">No one thanked her or praised her. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">No one noticed a thing. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Like a leaf falling from a tree, she just let go.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">There was no effort. There was no struggle.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> It wasn’t good and it wasn’t bad. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It was what it was, and it is just that.</span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">In the space of letting go, she let it all be. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">A small smile came over her face. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">A light breeze blew through her. </span></em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></em> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em><span style="color: black; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">And the sun and the moon shone forevermore.</span></em></div>
