I should’a, could’a, would’a
So it’s early and there is much to do today but let’s start with a Joseph Campbell quote just to kick off a true TGIF – below is my favorite of all quotes by Campbell because it is the greatest struggle that I’ve encountered to let go on what I had planned to happen versus what is happening in my life. It’s not that I am not known for switching gears when I need to and moving onto the next thing, it’s the constant moaning about it that I am imperiled with – when I was a kid we would say I should’a, could’a, would’a – but forget all those gremlins in your head, and think about this day as a blank slate where you are allowed to turn your direction towards the sun and feel pleasure deep down to your toes and that is all you are after today:
We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned,
so as to accept the life that is waiting for us.
Joseph Campbell
