Letting Go

I was perusing blogs yesterday when I came across this great quote here:

I'm  kind of getting to be a control freak in my old age and love to have a plan.  I love working towards something new and exciting, and feeling a sense of accomplishment when achieving that plan.

Sometimes, however, things don't work out like I plan. 

I'm realizing that sometimes, my ways are not what is best for me and my family, and that I need to have faith and let go of my plans and just be grateful for the life that is mine, and for all of the unplanned opportunities that I have for growth.
