Letting Go. Setting Things Down. Dropping Things That No Longer Serve. Relinquishment. Abdication. Surrender.
Around August 30th, something in me just snapped, and I decided not to go one more day with excuses, or carrying around things that weren't mine. I chose to stop holding on to past insecurities. I opted to stop building guards/walls that only keep people away, and most importantly, to let go of the things and people that don't serve me well. Not that I am some queen of the world, but I consistently care, love and support those i care about and rather than wrap myself in jealously, dis-inclusion or sadness when i don't receive 100% reciprocity, i instead chose to set all of those feelings that do not serve a purpose, and get on with it.
This has always been so hard, but for whatever reason - i'm just ready this time around. I am 100% confident in saying that.
I feel like I finally found the gene that allows me to just be myself, not apologize for it, and stop worrying so so much about how everyone i come into contact with will be affected. i still care, i just refuse to own anything that isn't my own anymore.
Most importantly, all of this means that clear out room for a lot of fantastic, new things to come into my life - and while i am already lucky enough to have a pretty fantastic life, this whole purge of junk that has been taking up space and sure cleared a lot of room over here in samiland :) watch out - manifesting powers in FULL effect.

I'm Sami Jo
From Denver, CO, United States
I'm from Denver, CO. I love to travel - both alone and with friends - explore new places and really learn the personality of a city. I own my own PR firm and offer support to creative professionals including authors, musicians and small business. My husband writes and performs live music (often for kids at local libraries in town), and we have a little boy who loves to travel as much as we do.
