Let go

“Playfulness is a form of letting go”

That is because I/you have to let go of control. I have to let go of architecting. Playfulness means returning to myself. Finding what is funny to me, what I feel like in the moment. Putting it out there, and seeing what responds; and I will play with what comes back.

My coaching school talks about playfulness, but I didn’t really ‘get’ it. Not in a ‘felt sensation’ kind of way, esp. not in difficult times. Not accessible then. But I felt it today in a 6:30am meditation. I don’t know how to ‘use it’ yet (or maybe I do), it feels new. And I see how much letting go is involved; esp. given the mode it is potentially replacing (planning, controlling, longing, bearing down, leaving myself).

Playful is very close to… just being myself… Let go.
