TO “LET GO” TAKES LOVE
To “let go” does not mean to stop
caring. It means I can’t do it for
someone else.
To “let go” is not to cut myself off,
it is the realization I can’t control
another.
To “let go” is not to enable, but to
allow learning from natural
consequences.
To “let go” is to admit
powerlessness, which means the
out come is not in my hands.
To “let go” is not to try to change
or blame another, it is to make
the best of myself.
To “let go” is not to care for, but
to care about.
To “let go” is not to fix, but to be
supportive.
To “let go” is not to judge, but to
allow another to be a human
being.
To “let go” is not to be in the
middle arranging all the
outcomes, but to allow others to
affect their own destiny.
To “let go” is not to be protective,
it is to permit another to face
reality.
To “let go” is not to nag, scold, or
argue, but instead to search out my
own shortcomings and to correct
them.
To “let go” is not to adjust everything
to my desires, but to take each day
as it comes, and to cherish myself in
it.
To “let go” is not to criticize and
regulate anybody, but to try to
become what I dream I can be.
To “let go” is not to regret the past,
but to grow and live for the NOW.
To “let go” is to fear less and to LOVE
MORE.
