Let it go". Because mostly, I was really afraid that was how other people defined me as well, and that if I didn't have that word to hold onto, my whole sense of self would just sort of dry up and blow away like a tumbleweed in the desert.<BR/><BR/>But, now it's been - what? - about three years since I dropped that particular word from my CV of Life, and I feel just fine about it.<BR/><BR/>And so will you, too, I'm sure.Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15713553200962519710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13537757.post-45139154830770198612008-07-18T16:30:00.000-07:002008-07-18T16:30:00.000-07:00I got teary reading this.
