Don't Worry Be Happy

I can't say quite when it happened or exactly what happened, but lately I feel like I finally found that place of peace that had eluded me until now. Oh, I still commute to work everyday, still have a mortgage and bills to pay, still not enough hours in the day to do everything. But I think that is the point. How fortunate that I have enough abundance in my life to own a home and have bills to pay. And isn't it great that my life is so busy and full that I fall into bed  tired but feeling like I accomplished something? That I have the health and energy to make all this happen is something I am grateful for everyday.
The last few months were really difficult for me. I seemed to be removing layer after layer and it was almost too much. Some say it has something to do with the movement of planets or energy or something. I don't know, that is possible. But whatever the cause, I feel like a weight has been lifted. Even my blood pressure returned to normal!
I think it may be due to my ability to let go and not feel like I need to control everything in my life. Oh sure, one has to make plans and all. But I think it's about knowing that sometimes those plans may not turn out quite the way they were expected to. And in those times, sometimes a small treasure of something new can be found- if we let ourselves be open to the possibility. That is the freedom we receive when we learn that life is what happens while we are busy making other plans- right John?
