My marriage ended with several years of acrimony. It was only when we could both let go of past events, that we could move on…
A family row caused a split right down the middle of our family. It was only when we could all let go of past hurts, that we could move on and create peace once more…
I’d become disenchanted with teaching as a profession, but even though that affected my mood and my happiness, I was comfortable in my role. It was only when I could let go of that comfort, that I could move on to a new challenge…
As a child, I was incredibly shy. It was only through letting go of those feelings that I could stand in front of 30 children in a classroom and become a teacher…
I’ve changed career or company several times in my life. It was only when I could let go of the security and comfort of where I was that I could move on to pastures new…
I used to have dreams of owning a massive house in the country; driving any car I desired; earning millions of pounds each year. It was only when I let go of the notion that material possessions and vast amounts of money could make me happy, that I could move on to lead a life where passion and mission are my driving forces…
I’ve let go of so many places…
So many people…
So many things.
And now, as I look back on my decisions…
I have to let go once more…
Let go of the guilt…
Let go of the failures…
Let go of the decisions I wish I’d never made.
Letting go isn’t always easy…
And it isn’t always necessary.
Because sometimes we need to hang on to things…
To memories…
To people…
To places.
And when we do let go…
We need to remember that whatever we’ve let go of, is still a part of us…
Part of our memories…
Part of the lessons we’ve learnt…
About ourselves and about life.
Letting go isn’t always about forgetting…
It’s just about moving on.
And sometimes…
We have to move on…
We have to grow…
And if we have to let go to do that…
Then we have to let go.
