Letting Go is a common term. “Oh, just let it go!” or “Oh my God! Will you just let it go?!” or “I just wish I could let it go.” But the thing is, how do I let something go? And for that matter, what happens when I let go of something? What is it that […]
Earlier this week I had taken my computer in for repair to a major national retailer that has a whole “squad” to fix computers. I’d taken it there before…many times, in fact.
