"Don't be afraid to let go. Every new adventure begins with the ending of another." - The Better Man Project
Why do we get so scared when we have to let go of something?
It's because we really don't think that we will find anything better despite how untrue that idea really is.
We think that what we experienced in the past is the best possible thing that could have happened to us and that nothing else in the future will come along to replace it.
But the truth is, when you really look at it, every ending of a story is a bit chaotic but it always births something new. Out of every dark space we have to walk through we end up returning back into the light.
This is absolutely true in relationships. Many times you have to walk away from someone and the pain feels unending. But the reality is that there was probably someone before that person who you had to heal from as well.
Then that new person came in and healed the wounds you were carrying.They soothed the pain that was turning you inside out.
And if the relationship you get into ends...another will come after that.
And another...
Eventually, someone will come into your life who refuses to let you go. They will want to be with you forever and will fight for you when you need to be fought for and support you when you need to be supported.
And how great of a day that will be.
So until that day, you have to keep to your faith and understand that life is a grand series of challenges and victories for those who really decide to live.
Notice how I didn't say "want."
While these lessons and challenges can be incredibly difficult, they help you grow into a person who can take on life's greatest challenges one step at a time.
By staying completely open to experiencing all of the different colors of life, you will live in the present moment and continue growing.
That's a happy life. That's one of fulfillment.
Trust that.
