Let go already

Today, Nanay, we believe God wants you to know that ... sometimes you need to let go. 

It hurts when the things or the people we love are taken from us. Make your peace with loss. Nothing lasts forever. Like the trees in autumn, you too must learn to shed your attachments and start afresh.





Letting go is always, maybe all the time, easier said than done. It wasn't actually taken from me. I let it go. I decided to give up because it wasn't working. I gave my all, everything. My whole life depended on it. But there wasn't anything good coming out of it. What confuses me is why some people think I am the bad guy simply because I have given up? It feels like I do not have any permission to be happy. To stop enslaving myself, punishing myself for my own mistakes. I wish I am stronger than this. I wish I am not easily swayed. I wish I can already claim the freedom I have been praying for.
