Sometimes the best way to hold on to something is by letting it go. That sounds strange to me, yet I believe it’s true. Maybe the separation will reveal what is really there, or maybe, it will reveal what never was there. This is especially true for relationships. “If you love something, let it go. If it comes back, it’s yours. If it doesn’t, it never was.” I am seeing the truth in that statement more than ever. Trying to hold on tight to someone can be the equivalent of suffocating them. It can also block you from seeing the truth. This weeks message to me was “Let Go”. I didn’t take it to mean walk away, though. It was more a message about letting go of my need for control, my need to fix everything and the stress the envelopes me when I can’t fix it. Until I learn to let go, misery will be my companion. But letting go is hard. How do I just shut myself off and leave our fate up to whatever comes? But I have to, the fight for survival has become too much of a burden for me to carry alone. Maybe letting you go will help us see if we have something worth holding on to. Right now I just don’t know…The hurt within you runs so deep that you can’t see your way out of it. But, I have to step aside and allow you to find your way. If it is meant for us, GOD and no one else will reveal that to us and we will be stronger than ever. Being apart has been so hard, but it is necessary right now. P.U.S.H
