Let go

 

Who doesn’t like a sunset?!

Sitting comfortably and peacefully watching the sun set is the most beautiful thing one can experience at the end of the day. But the pleasure is for the eyes mostly, and today I ask myself what if we pleasured the mind and heart by letting go and freeing ourselves from whatever weighs heavy on us?


It is not easy to let go, it’s even more difficult to free ourselves from whatever is holding us back but in this life nothing is easy! 🧘‍♀️ Breathe, feel, and when you see something you’re so attached to or anything that holds you back, detach yourself from it and let go.

Whatever we value or like is not always good for us but that?! We already know it, the question is, what do we do about it? We should learn to let go, not only the things we like but also those that are of no importance to us that we don’t know how to free ourselves from.

Our fears, our anger, our bad habits, unhealthy relationships, unproductive jobs, the bad company, the constant desire to be perfect, the things we lost, anything! you can name it! Free yourself from it, let go if it’s of no good to you, and as it feels good to see the sunset, trust me feeling the freedom is better.

Even the Bible says, “Do not let the sun set over your anger”. Whatever holds you down, weighs heavily on you, disturbs your peace of mind, restrains you from moving forward, don’t let the sun set over it. Let go and live a little. You deserve only what’s best so fight for it by separating yourself from everything that shouldn’t be part of your life. As the sun sets, make sure you also set your life on a good path. 

Listen to your heart you’ll know what to let go.

Emotions

Ever thought about how your emotions impact those around you? A book I'm reading, What You Feel You Can Heal , compared emotional expression to the physics of a see-saw, and it got me thinking. When you suppress your feelings, someone close to you might unknowingly pick up on them and express those emotions instead. Picture it: you’re sitting on one end of the see-saw, holding down your feelings, and the person on the other end gets pulled up, reflecting what you’ve been trying to push down. I can’t help but remember how, as a child, I would worry(I guess I still do) when my mom seemed uneasy, even though she'd always say, "Everything's fine." The more I worried, the more she tried to calm me, which only made me feel more anxious. This is exactly the phenomenon the book describes: “The people close to you will act like mirrors, reflecting back to you a perfect image of yourself, including the parts of yourself you would rather not look at or deal with.” This isn’t...

Forgiveness

Image
It is said that forgiveness is the greatest gift you can give yourself, but again, isn't it the hardest thing to do? But who said we shouldn't do hard things? Why should it be more easier to forgive others than ourselves?  We tend to think that forgiving ourselves is excusing our mistakes or forgetting the past, but it's not! When we forgive ourselves, we are just embracing our imperfect journey, we are acknowledging that we are humans, that we will stumble, that our mistakes don't define us, and that however much we may fall short, we are still worth of compassion, still worth of love, and that we deserve a fresh start. Forgiving yourself is not running away from whatever you might have done. It's a brave act of letting go of the heavy burden of guilt, shame, and regrets that you always carry around. It is a quiet, rebellion against your inner voice that always whispers how you ain't good enough, how you're such a bad person beyond repair, how you're a ...

Firsts

Image
We all tend to live by the saying “live every day as your last” I read in a book that we shouldn’t actually say that! that lasts are tragic and we should instead live every day as our first since firsts are exciting and I couldn’t agree more! Imagine being told that you only have few days left to live… would you really laugh genuinely, would you be able to go to places or talk to people with enthusiasm? Would you boldly say that’s it?! That you did it all? that you laughed your hardest, helped others, enjoyed life, and loved yourself and others fully in your time here?  Now think of how exciting it is to do something, be somewhere or meet someone for the first time. Think of how each day would be a celebration and an accomplishment, think of how at the end of the day you’d be happy to recall how exciting and satisfying the day was, and think of how if that day was to actually be the last you’d smile and say oh I’ve definitely lived!  Lasts are indeed tragic and sometimes full ...
