9 Things You Need To Let Go Of This Fall
@loudmorgs

Fall has a way of taking our breath away and reminding us of how amazing the world around us is. It is also a time for letting go. As the autumn leaves let go of the trees and fall, it is a great time for us to let go of a few things in our lives as well. It is a chance to let go and grow with the seasons ahead.

1. Let go of a bad habit.

Whether it is as simple as filling up your gas tank before it hits empty or binging on Netflix the night before a test, letting go of a bad habit never hurts!

2. Let go of that one piece of clothing.

We all have it. That one shirt or a pair of pants covered in Taco Bell stains and love, letting go is going to be hard, but now is the time my friend.

3. Let go of that ex.

They are not worth it. You keep going back and all you get in return is more heartbreak. Let them go and open you up to a new year and new possibilities. You deserve it.

4. Let go of shoes.

It seems silly, but we all have a pair, or fifteen, like this. Donate them! They have only been worn once or twice and are just sitting there.

5. Let go of toxic people.

This one is hard, but until you let them go you do not realize how much they were poisoning you. Sometimes you have to let go of the things you once loved dearly.

6. Let go of that anxiety.

Whether it is over tests and sitting alone in the cafeteria, let it go. It is easier said than done, but letting go of even one of the things that worries you the most is incredibly freeing.

7. Let go of the need to control.

Another hard one, but we cannot control everything in our lives, much to my chagrin. Sometimes you have let go and learn to roll with the punches.

8. Let go of the contents of your fridge.

A simple one, but something that so many people need to do! Cleaning out your fridge not only makes room for all of the holiday leftovers but also allows you to take control of an aspect of your life in a healthy way!

9. Let go of the anger.

Whether it is the guy who cut you off in traffic or the best friend who changed a painful way, let it go. The anger and hurt you are holding onto is only making you feel worse

Let it go. Whether it is one thing on this list or all of them, just do it. Like the leaves falling from the trees, it is time to let go. and open yourself up to the beauty and new beginnings of the future.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
