Once we let go, we are free. That’s something I think about almost every day. Such a simple idea, yet for many of us so difficult to grasp. We are such a neurotic society, raised with expectations, rules, and burdens that we feel we must endure. We never find time anymore to stop, look around, breathe, and let go.
Learning to let go has been one of the most important things I have learned during my short time here. I think that we have such knee-jerk reactions to the things that happen to us, that it almost puts up a wall between letting go and holding on. We feel that the more we dwell on a conflict, the more solutions or justifications we can conjure up. We neglect to understand that everything happens for a purpose, what happens is not a mistake. We must let go and trust, an action we rarely look to.
