Love has a hundred gentle ends.
—Leonora Speyer
Letting
go is a process that is seldom easy. For many, its meaning is elusive.
How do we "let go"? Letting go means removing our attention from a
particular experience or person and putting our focus on the here and
now. We hang on to the past, to past hurts, but also to past joys. We
have to let the past pass. The struggle to hang on to it, any part of
it, clouds the present. You can't see the possibilities today is
offering if your mind is still drawn to what was.
Letting
go can be a gentle process. Our trust in our higher power and our faith
that good will prevail, in spite of appearances, eases the process.
And
we must let each experience end, as its moment passes, whether it is
good or bad, love or sorrow. It helps to remember that all experiences
contribute to our growth and wholeness. No experience will be ignored by
the inner self who is charting our course. All are parts of the
journey. And every moment has a gentle end, but no moment is forgotten.
My journey today is akin to yesterday's journey and tomorrow's too. I will savor each moment and be ready for the next.
