Let go

Today's blog is about letting go.

There are far too many people walking around with baggage, let it go!
Most people have experienced some type of let down in their lives, some more then others. What separates us is how we respond to it.  There are people who have been let down numerous times but they get up, dust themselves off and move on with their lives.  Then there are those who get let down once and stay down.

Life is like detox. Some people avoid the pain of letting go because it hurts to bad so they suppress it or avoid it and continue to dwell in their personal emotional hell. Those that truly kick and do so successfully are those that cry it out, yell it out, scream it out, allow themselves to feel work through the pain and move along. 

There is nothing more disturbing then people who complain about situations they can change and instead of changing they dwell in it spiritually, mentally and emotionally even after they have physically moved on from it. 

This doesn't just mean in relationships, this can be anything. examples.
He/she broke your heart..be upset, cry, process what went right and what went wrong and .....move on
You didn't get promoted....ask why you were not promoted and strive towards fixing the situation (more education, work with someone on interviewing skills, have a fresh pair of eyes look at your resume)...plan your next move and move on
Someone has betrayed you...cry it out, either tell them how you feel or do what I do (write a disturbing poem about them, pray for them and move on

You may not realize that you are doing it so let me help you...
if you start any sentence with ANY of the following...your dwelling
I remember when....
that day when you....
back when...
When we were together....
after all we've....
last year.....
2 (or any number) years ago when .....
if you are no longer in that situation and you find yourself STILL talking about it
you no longer work there but your still talking about it

dwelling in misery is not healthy or productive and you never know when you may leave this world.  If the situation is savable, save it if its not  

Deal with the problem and moooove on
