LET GO

to "Let go" does not mean to stop caring-
it means I can't do it for someone else.

to "Let go" is not to cut myself off-
its the realization I can't control another.

to "Let go" is to not enable-
but to allow learning from natural consequences.

to "Let go" is to admit powerlessness-
which means the outcome is not in my hands.

to "Let go" is not to change or blame another-
it's to make the most of myself.

to "Let go" is not to "care for"-
but to "care about"

to "Let go" is not to "fix"-
but to be supportive.

to "Let go" is not to judge-
but to allow another to be a human being.

to "Let go" is not be in the middle arranging all the
outcomes-
but to allow others to affect their destines.

to "Let go" is not to deny-
but to accept.

to "Let go" is not to nag, scold or argue-
but instead to search out of my own shortcomings and
correct them.

to "Let go" is not to adjust everything to my desires-
but to take each day as it comes, and cherrish myself
in it.

to "Let go" is not to criticise and regulate anybody-
but to try to become what I dream I can be.

to "Let go" is to not regret the past-
but to grow and live for the future.

to "Let go" is to fear less-
and love more.

"The beginning of love is to let those
we love be perfectly themselves, and
not to twist them to fit our own image.
Otherwise we love only the reflection
of ourselves we find in them."

Thomas Merton
No Man Is an Island
