On our emotional journey we meet every kind of people, some of them are just travelers that we meet along the ride, others are companions that we never set off without them, others we run into them when our paths cross at a common ground, these persons take us by storm, they reform and update our emotional baggage and add that zest to our hearts and they become essentials in our life and the thought of letting them go demolish our being and throws us into the fear of losing them.
But the unexpected always happens because in the matters of the heart there are no guarantees, only uncertainties where the wind of change might blow from any corner that surrounds us; we have to be ready and strong enough to let go of what we desire to hold on to more than life itself.
The reality might be modified by the unforeseen and the sudden, when that happens, we need to be artists of knowing what to cling to and what to set free. We have to be strong when we feel fragile, we have a will power that can move the earth beneath our feet, so when someone‘s presence in our life becomes frustrating, when we start to hurt our loved ones, when the knife of distance begins to get so sharpened that if we even get close to that person we risk a great cut and injury, it is wise to have the muscle to let go even if we would rather stay and be wounded and bleed their presence rather than endure the safety of their absence!
If you let go this does not translate itself into an act of surrender it means you decided to challenge yourself and not resign under the weight of life, there is a difference between giving up and letting go. When we give up it is because we are not strong enough to move on, but when we let go it means we are strong enough to go on towards a new horizon for the future might gives us again what the past made us lose!
In all this game of grab and liberate , the skill is to discern and know what is worth holding on to and what is better be set free ! Life is all about wanting and having, having what we want, wanting we have...Celebrate your personhood and do not be scared to leave a familiar pain in favor of an unknown joy!
Declare that The danger is when you fail to distinguish between the two poles of happiness for you will risk losing what could have made your life a memorable one, when you fall short on recognizing the jewel of your being, you will drop it in the box of neglect and it will be stolen from you, because you did not have the powerful grasp to keep it and fight for its possession! Then you will be the assassin of your own elixir of love and life, you will be the author of your own sorrow, because you did not know how to hold on to what was yours and you will suffer your abandonment when you left the door open for thieves to come in and rob you!
be careful of what you let go for it might never come back to you, beware of letting the wind in for it might carry what you have away from you, know when to leave the window open and when it is safe to close it, for an open door entice even the saint to come in and take a look!
Do not be a disciple of regret but strive to be a follower of awareness, know what is on stake and load your wisdom so you can always be the ruler of your kingdom or you will risk to be deserted of your throne and lose your reign over yourself and your people, you will wake up alone and bitter and a king of a deserted land, a sun with no one to shine its rays for!
