Finally Free

I’ve always gained so much more than I thought I’d lost whenever I had the courage to let go of that which I ignorantly clutched so tightly for so long.

With Love,

Russ

Some of my favorite sensory experiences include waves crashing on rocky shores, waterways in ancient redwood and fern-filled forests, and rain. My wife and I have been married since 1979. We have 3 adult children and 5 grandchildren. I manage a wealth management firm that I founded in 2003. My Beloved is a Special Education teacher for Kindergartners and First Graders. I'm a published author of approximately 60 books in a variety of genres for grownups and children.

      Sadly, sometimes it has been more of a slipped-out-through-pure-exhaustion situation than a conscious decision to let go, but the positive results have often been the same. ;-D!

      LOL! I don’t know about you, Colleen, but in my case the only conclusion I can make is that I’m a slow learner! Fortunately life is a patient teacher and will keep providing the lessons I need until I eventually learn them or die, whichever comes first–and I suspect that in many cases it will be the latter! ;-D!
