Sometimes you have to let go of something good to get something great.
Sometimes to see the future, we have to turn our backs on the past.
I think letting go of something is one of the hardest things we have to do here on earth. We have to let go of loved ones, dreams, relationships, and what we know because nothing ever stays the same for long. It always seems that just when you start getting used to something, it has to change. You either have to accept that change or let go...
As much as we wish we could hold on, sometimes it is just best to let go and leave with a few beautiful memories. Sometimes it is easier to just let go instead of facing the problem, doing the work, or expressing your heart to someone. Sometimes it is best to let go...but sometimes I think we just convince ourselves that it is the right thing to do because we are too scared to hold on.
I don't know what I am. Sometimes I think I should still hang tightly to this dream I have...but the logical part of me tells me I need to let go and move on because someone better will come along...right? I guess that is my predicament. I have been here for so long now...I want to hang on, but if the other person does not seem to want to, either because of fear and doubt or whatever the reason, why should I remain standing alone? Shouldn't I look for something better? But am I making the biggest mistake by letting go of something I still have not gotten an answer to?
I guess time will tell, but as time goes on, it sometimes seems like I only grow more confused. Maybe...maybe I should just let go in the sense that I don't worry about what ifs and what will or could or should or might happen. Maybe I am supposed to let go and give my worries and fears and hopes and dreams to God. And instead trying to solve everything myself, let God handle it...So that is what I will do. Let go...I am letting it go to God and trusting that He will move me in the right direction and give me patience, clarity, and joy. I encourage you to try it too.

This reminds me of my previous relationship. Afraid that I would not find someone better, I stubbornly clung on to a very unhappy and bad relationship that was going nowhere. When eventually I was forced to let it go, I felt a sudden "emptiness" in me, and at that time, I felt that life sucked. But in retrospect, I should thank my lucky stars for this turnout of events, or I would now be very unhappily married, or maybe even divorced.
Afer a spate of events, I've come to realise that everything happens for a reason. We just have to believe that someone or something better is waiting for us. We just have to be patient and keep this belief alive. :)
