Detach with love..


Hello every one. As I have shared my son has been home after being in a Christian base rehab going on 5 1/2 months completely clean from all and working his program. He has a job now that he truly enjoys and I have to admit he has been doing really good. He and a female roommate live in our rental just a few houses down from me and I am having a problem with the control .. I guess through all he has put me through and I allowed I was always in control of his bill reminding him about his visits with his daughter and asking him where he is at and what time is he going home. Well I see how I effect him I am not allowing him to grow to be the man that he is showing that he is. Detachment or maybe the control or both is so tough for me right now!! Just had I let it out ;( god bless

Aloha Gaby...I relate and then I also relate to "I can't, God can, I'll let him".  Let go and let Gaby doesn't sound as reliable as let go and Let God.  Hmmmmm  ((((hugs)))) smile

Great awareness Gaby and glad you could let it out here on these pages.
I'm so conscious of the gap that I feel inside now that I'm letting go of controlling behaviour - I think that I just need to loosen up a bit more to let the universe weave its magic. Not sure why that is difficult to do but I think that I'm strangely scared that I might cry when good things start to happen!??!! All in good time, have faith. (((((Hugs)))))
