It is so much easier to hold onto things
Than to let go.
It is so much easier to say we let go,
Than to have let go and it be gone.
It is harder to actually let go
If we don’t know why we are holding on.
We really can’t let go.
Here is where you come in.
You have to ask yourself why you can’t release it, really
Start with, “Why?”
And you will find it is because inside you truly felt you were wronged.
How do we clear a “wronged” feeling?
You have to clear it with yourself first
And if it is possible with those you want to be clear with.
You have to tell yourself, it made you feel vulnerable
That maybe you weren’t respected, or felt loved, or cared for
And admit to yourself that you actually need those things
That none of us can live without those feelings.
And if you can speak to the person,
You can say,
“Hey, I got to the bottom of why this or that bothered me so much.
In the end, I just didn’t feel cared for or about,
Like I didn’t matter.
It wasn’t your fault entirely,
My needs to feel cared for got in the way
And I just wanted you to know
It feels better to tell you.
Thanks for your time”
That alone clears the air.
That alone clears your conscious.
That alone not only releases what you were holding onto to
It erases it and it soon becomes a “remember when” story, maybe.
If you can not release, erase, then you are still in it.
You haven’t come to terms with, “Why?”
Speaking out what you believe is your truth
from your inner heart to the outside of you
Simply releases you of carrying it.
That is the gift of truth.
Once it is found
It never bothers you again.
