The Single Woman’s Dash of Sass: August 2, 2011
August 1, 2011CommentQuote of the Day:
“This was when I learned that you have to give up your life as you know it to get a new one: that sometimes you need to let go of everything you’re clinging to and start over, whether because you’ve outgrown it or because it’s not working anymore, or because it was wrong for you in the first place.” ~Kelly Cutrone
The Single Woman Says:
It’s Life 101 – New things can’t enter your life until you make room for them. Think about it…No matter how fabulous and chic that new dress you just bought is, until you clear out all the old clutter and outgrown clothes and out-of-style ensembles from your closet, there will be no room for it. Or you’ll cram it in anyway with all the old items and it will grow wrinkled and rumpled and worn-looking before you’ve even had a chance to wear it.
My point? Spring clean your life the same way you would your closet. Let go of the old and make room for the new. Whatever it is you’re clinging to had significance…and meaning…and importance…for a season. And that season has passed. Make peace with what has been and what will never be again…and in doing so, you usher in WHAT IS YET TO COME.
