Letting Go...

Today I wanted to write a blog entry on a completely different subject...but lost focus and started going through all my old postings when I came across a draft that I didn't publish for whatever the reason. After reading it, I was very suprised to find how closely this passage related to my life at this very instint. Surely, not a coincedence.

I hope this helps to all those who are in a similar position...

To let go isn’t to forget, not think about, or ignore. It doesn’t leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn’t winning and it isn’t losing. It’s not about pride and it’s not about how you appear. It’s not about obsessing or dwelling on the past. Letting go isn’t blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts, and doesn’t leave emptiness, hurt or sadness. It’s not giving in or giving up. Letting go isn’t about loss and it’s not defeat. To let go is to cherish memories, to overcome and to move on. It is having an open mind and confidence in the future. Letting go is accepting. It is learning and experiencing and growing. To let go is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you cry and made you grow. It’s about all that you have, all that you had and all that you will soon gain. Letting go is having the courage to accept change and the strength to keep moving. It is learning that sometimes the heart can be the most potent remedy. To let go is to open a door, to clear a path and to set yourself free.- Anonymous
