Fawlty Showers

Let It @#$@ Go

The next day I sat down to right my blog. I wrote, rewrote, deleted what I’d written, and wrote some more. Time passed. I had a training that morning. People were coming soon.

I cursed my laptop. I spilled my coffee and cursed the cup.  “#$#%@#%%” I cursed my high school English teacher, and all three of the Pitt professors whose writing classes I’d taken. “May you rot in a hell of editing grade school essays.”

When I was a child I’d been told my guardian angel shed a tear every time I swore.  “Cry my a river,”  I muttered.

In the end I realized what I had written was good, but not perfect. “Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good,” I said out loud.  “Do your best and let it go.”

I let it go, published my blog, and felt a wave of relief wash over me.

Today I will do my best and let it go.
