Life Goes On..

Written 15/6/12

For me, moving on is about creating peace within yourself. It's about realising you are more than what your actions ever were, and accepting yourself the way you are. It's through the act of letting go that we are finally free of ourselves, others, and our past worries. Letting go of what hurts you and what has happened to you can seem like such a difficult thing to do, but really, it is the first step to happiness. When you let go you are letting go of grudges, things you can't change, and any past grievances that you have been carrying around with you for some time. And when you banish away all those things, make sure they're gone from your mind, what are you left with? The person you were before all that bad stuff happened. The person you were meant to be. The person you really are. This is you. You are finally free from anything that's been troubling you, and when you are free, you can do anything you want. You can make a fresh start. You are never the sum of your past mistakes - they do not define you. You define yourself. And when you no longer carry these burdens along with you, you are no longer the result of them. You can start over.

Letting go is a powerful feeling and I'm glad to say I'm finally experiencing it. It's truly liberating and it will open so many new doors for you.


“The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that that situation is over, you cannot move forward.”
