To Just Quit Takes Love and Courage

 

(I found the below somewhere on the web…

but it didn’t have any byline…it’s not mine..but it’s really good)

 

To let go does not mean to stop caring,
it means I can’t do it for someone else.
To let go is not to cut myself off,
it’s the realization I can’t control another.
To let go is not to enable,
but allow learning from natural consequences.
To let go is to admit powerlessness, which means
the outcome is not in my hands.
To let go is not to try to change or blame another,
it’s to make the most of myself.
To let go is not to care for,
but to care about.
To let go is not to fix,
but to be supportive.
To let go is not to judge,
but to allow another to be a human being.
To let go is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcomes,
but to allow others to affect their destinies.
To let go is not to be protective,
it’s to permit another to face reality.
To let go is not to deny,
but to accept.
To let go is not to nag, scold or argue,
but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.
To let go is not to adjust everything to my desires,
but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it.
To let go is not to criticize or regulate anybody,
but to try to become what I dream I can be.
To let go is not to regret the past,
but to grow and live for the future.

To let go is to fearless, love more and have courage

Just Quit Living With a Broken Heart

 

How many times has your heart been broken and you’ve turned the other way?

How many times have you said to yourself that it doesn’t matter what someone did, didn’t do, said or didn’t say?

How many times have you told yourself how strong you are?

How many times have you thought about what you should have said or done when someone hurt you, but you didn’t say it or do it?

How many times have you played past hurts over and over  and over again in you mind?

How many times have you gotten to the point where you can’t even remember the hurt or the pain because it’s so far down and you’ve suppressed it?

How many times have you wondered if something “actually happened”, because it hurt you so badly and you’re blocking it out?

When are you going to deal with all the ways, things, and people who have hurt you?

How are you going to deal with it?

Are you going to deal with it?

How do you put your heart back together and become open again to love and relationships?

Isn’t it time to Just Quit Living With a Broken Heart?

Isn’t it time to Let Go of the hurts and the pains of the past?

Isn’t it time to Let Go of those who have hurt you, or brought you pain?

Isn’t it time to heal?  How can you heal your heart?

Isn’t it time to Let Go of the fears and the doubts of opening up to love again?

 If now isn’t the time  – then when is?
