Letting Go, Moving On & Mending Broken Hearts

By Evan Sanders


I mostly used to be that type of person that would cling to people, things, emotions, and circumstances too much. I would grasp at them until they could not move readily around my mind and my life. I thought that if I held them tightly that it would absolutely keep them close to me. What I found however, is that gripping onto things too firmly only chokes the air out of them or makes them sift through your hands like sand.

I believed that holding on was the greatest sign of strength - that to prove quite how much you would like something you truly must hang onto it with everything you have got. But in that , I lost parts of myself. I lost my capacity to change. I did not give other stuff the chance to change so I instead ground them into submission without letting them function freely. I came up against one certain feature of life that proved my deemed strength weak time and again - life will always change.

So I really began to let go. I truly started to let those pretty and complex portraits of memories in my mind unfold like streamers in the wind. I let them flow naturally like the waters in the streams.

When the time was right, I rolled them back up, smiled widely, and took some time to stare at the open sea of uncerainty in front of me.

I am prepared.

I'm open.

I am finally happy.

It is time to move on with a full heart.

I truly feel, that allowing things to unfold is the one very hard thing for us to do isn't it? Move on? Let relationships go? Yes, but essentially walking away from things and never looking back is among the strongest things which you can do. You never truly know if something will come back around again, but if it does, it was intended to be. If it doesnt in the end, it's still possible to enjoy the present anways. Live here and now.

So let go...that's true strength.
