Let Go

So on this journey that I have been on, of me bettering myself and engaging with others, I realized that while there were a lot of lessons for me to learn, some of these lessons took time and concentrated effort to stick. It took time for them to be planted in my heart, take root and show fruit and it’s not for a lack of effort, I know that it’s because there wasn’t room in my heart for me to receive all of this because I had unintentionally occupied that space with the lessons of old. So, in essence, I needed to learn to let go, to learn to make room for the uncharted, to make room for the unapologetic and authentic me. I know the hardest thing for us to do sometimes is to release, to let go of the things that have chained us, to let go of the pain that has defined us. Because a part of that release means exactly that, letting go of something that has potentially defined who we are. Because we are afraid to explore who we are outside of that hurt because for some that hurt is a tether to something that makes sense, something tangible. Been here, and I understand it. But there are few key lessons that I have personally learnt that helped me to flip the script, sometimes you will only ever see the beauty in life once you’ve released your ability not to. Released that pain, hurt, offence, damaging relationship, and definitions of you generated by someone else or an event. The other being that is it only the things we release from a place of peace that will not return to harm us. Before you start anything, learn to let go and make room for something new, learn to sustain yourself.
