Letting go of things you cannot control
I became obsessed with a notion the other day that someone who has troubled me was trouble and I started painting the world around this person in black and white tones. Trouble, I kept saying to myself, trouble and I then built hypotheses around that notion, and I turned them over and over in my mind. Trouble, I kept coming back to, not letting go of, and trying to find an answer that was yes or no to support my conclusion. I finally gave up the other day and just said, so what?, what if this person is trouble?, what is the worst of it? My role is to just be myself and let what happens happen.
My horoscope today was perfect – as usual:

Sometimes major struggles end when one side simply walks away and finds something better to do. Figure out what it is exactly that you are tussling over — and whether it’s really worth it to you. Are you engaged in this contest simply because you’re caught up in it all and can’t let it go? Your stubbornness comes in handy sometimes, but this is a good time to put it aside.
