Letting go,
A poem.
Letting go can be so hard to do,
Especially when you're letting go of something that meant a lot to you at one time.
Or letting go of something that was part of your identity at one point in your life.
It can be so hard to cut ties from that.
I think sometimes we have this notion that everything will last forever.
But it doesn't.
Things change.
We evolve.
We move forward.
And we grow.
We do this all of course by letting go.
We let go of the picture that we once had,
Because we know that there is now a better picture.
We let go of all the time and energy that we put in,
Because we know that our time and energy can now go to something that benefits our soul more.
We let go of this old version of us,
Because we know that there is a new,
Amazing version of us waiting to be shown to the world.
We let go of what isn't serving us anymore,
Because it's not allowing space.
For what we want in our lives.
Letting go can be painful.
Letting go can hurt.
But letting go can also be exciting.
We can find out new things about ourselves.
We can find a completely new happiness in our lives.
A happiness that we might not have known existed.
We can start to become the person that we've always wanted to be.
We can start to have the life that we've always wanted to have.
We can feel joy in ways that we have never felt joy before.
We can experience life in ways that we once didn't understand.
We can find beauty in things that we never noticed before.
All we need to do is let go.
Let that pain come up,
And don't judge the pain that comes up for us.
Give the pain the space that it needs,
And let it go.
Life will be beautiful again.
Life will feel good again.
You will feel good again.
Just let it go.
