Letting Go

Relationships can be a wonderful experience in a person’s life but when their not, we must be willing to let go. If there’s an unhealthy relationship taking place, the couple can do everything possible to solve the issues but when that’s not enough, letting go is the best choice. We tend to hold on way too hard, when the solution is many times found in letting go. If the relationship is not working, the healthiest thing to do is to put an end to it and move on. But why do we find it so difficult to let go?

We fear not having control. The moment where you decide to let go, the control over the situation slips out of your hands. This can be a frightful experience for many because we ponder way too much on the consequences and changes we will have to experience. We dislike change and we try our best to avoid it, but many times change is the key to ending our struggles. It can bring fear upon you but it can also take you to a new level, new opportunities and a new beginning.

Though we don’t realize it, by refusing to let go we are limiting our possibilities. There are plenty of opportunities waiting for us but many times our stubbornness prevents us from reaching new success in our lives. If the relationship is not working you should not limit yourself from experiencing new changes in your life. You can meet the right people, but in order to do that you must be willing to let go of the wrong ones.

“When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.” Alexander Graham Bell shared a powerful truth with these words. The fact that your relationship wasn’t successful doesn’t meant that you life is over. There are hundreds of opens door waiting for you but you must be willing to focus your sight on them and move away from the past. If wee keep looking at the closed doors we are leaving behind, we will never truly move on. Its time to accept the chance, let go of what wasn’t meant to be and open ourselves to a new journey waiting to be taken.

Though there are people that will enter our lives and remain in it, there are others that will only be present for a season. It doesn’t make them any less valuable, but their time in our lives is limited. If its time for fall, we cant make summer stay. Sometimes we are better of accepting that in order to get something, letting go of something else is necessary. Its time to put our fears aside, set our selves free and open new doors leading to a new beginning.

“I don’t know why we all hang on to something we know we’re better off letting go. It’s like we’re scared to lose what we really don’t even have. Some of us we’d rather have something than nothing at all, but the truth is…to have something halfway is harder than not having it at all”.
