letting go of the past

I came across this earlier post and it made me pause and reflect today. Letting go is always a part of living, yet can be hard sometimes. I hope you enjoy this reminder.


letting go


Letting go is living life in balance.

We let go of every exhalation in order to breathe in life.

We let go in order to sleep.

We let go of being held as a baby in order to walk.

We let go of our children so they can grow as adults.

We let go of old hurts in order to heal.

We let go of our armor so we can give and receive love.

We let go of attachments in order to be free.

We let go of the past in order to step into the future.

We let go in order to grow.

Sometimes we are afraid to let go because we experience fear of the unknown or the emptiness we might feel … But we do know in our heart or hearts, that when we resist letting go we resist living our lives fully.

Is there something that you are ready to let go of now?

Namaste

    Thank you, Val, for writing this poignant and excellent reminder what is important in life, as it is easy to attach value to things and people that stop us from being free,

    I had a wonderful teacher who told us: “Breathe in.” We did.

    “Now, breathe in again… And again… You can’t do it, can you? It’s the same way with money, and all forms of energy. You have to breathe out before you can breathe in!”
