THE ART OF LETTING GO.

When you become good at the art of letting sufferings go, then you'll come to realize what you were dragging around with you. And for that, no one else other than you was responsible.

Since I’m sick I’m going to try to keep this short simple and efficient. (just FYI these blogs that I write if assumed it’s biased then it may be because these are purely on my own assumptions and my opinions. If you feel offended then that’s on your own terms. I’m not going to apologize for what I feel just because someone is insulted. Thank you. ).

Sometimes in life we reach a point where we come across certain individuals, events and/or happenings that provide no value to us anymore. We may think that keeping them around may be the best possible situation but in reality we keep making different excuses as to why we shouldn’t let them go. Examples such as “He’ll/She’ll change,” “I need to make her/him realize,” “we’ve been friends for so long that it’s a waste…” come into mind and from then we’re forced to believe that holding on is the best answer. What does an individual have to do to realize that it’s time to just pick up the pieces and leave? Does another person have to do something completely heinous to make us realize something that we should have realized a long time ago? Why do we blind ourselves from the obvious in “hopes” that if just a little bit of effort we can finally change a person and mold them into what we want them to be?

FYI, we can never change a person to what we want them to be unless they want to change themselves. A person may have different influences, bf/gf’s telling them what to do, but whatever action a person does is their choice, plain and simple. Always trying to be the “exception” of the equation, were lead to believe that hoping and wishing can get us what we want. Blinded from the truth these foolish games that we play become as some sort of morbid entertainment, running around in circles with no finish line.

I’m not saying there’s no gray area to the matters of learning when to let go. If you feel that it really is something that you need to sacrifice for, go for it. But keep in mind that we are all the masters of our own lives, and you never want to end up looking back and saying “ if only…”

 

Until next time…

when will it be your turn to let go?
