Let It Go!

My daughter sent this to me. It is by T.D. Jakes and it's fabulous. I found it timely for a number of people I know:

There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk.

I don’t want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you, let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.
People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.
Let them go.
And it doesn’t mean that they are a bad person, it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.
You've got to know when it's dead.
Let them go!!

If you're holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to......
LET IT GO!!!!

If you are holding onto past hurts and pains...
LET IT GO!!!!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth....
LET IT GO!!!!

If someone has angered you....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge.....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction.....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you are holding onto a job that no longer meets your needs or talents....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you have a bad attitude.....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you're stuck in the past and destiny is trying to take you to a new level....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you're struggling with the healing of a broken relationship or troubled past....
LET IT GO!!!!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves......
LET IT GO!!!!

If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and destiny is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to....
LET IT GO!!!!

Let the past be the past. Forget the former things and look to your future.
LET IT GO!!!!

Get right, or get left, think about it, and then....
LET IT GO!!!!

It may seem impossible to let some things go, and maybe you need help in letting certain things go, but your possibilities become endless when you let go of that weight that is dragging you down. It's okay to ask for help, it's okay to acknowledge that there IS a weight, and it's okay to LET IT GO! You don't have to forget, you don't have to validate the wrong, but you don't have to continue carrying the burden either. The great thing about the past is that it is the past. It's part of what has made you who you are but it doesn’t have to define who you are now. It has brought you to this moment, and in this moment, you can choose what you want the next step to be. Think about it.

Buen Camino
