To let go isn't to forget, not think about, or ignore. It doesn't
leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn't
winning and it isn't losing. It's not about pride and it's not
about how you appear, and it's not obsessing or dwelling on the
past. Letting go isn't blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts,
and doesn't leave emptiness, hurt or sadness. It's not giving in or
giving up. Letting go isn't about loss, and it's not defeat. To let
go is to cherish memories, but to overcome and to move on. It is
having an open mind and confidence in the future. Letting go is
accepting. It is learning and experiencing and growing. To let go
is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you
cry and made you grow. It's about all that you have, all that you
had and all that you will soon gain. Letting go is having the
courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving. Letting
go is growing up. It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be
the most potent remedy. To let go is to open a door, and to clear a
path and set yourself free.
