letting go..

It’s very difficult to let go of those you love, those you need, those you give a reason to your existence. Somehow though life, circumstances conspires to take them away from you..  and sometimes (not sure whether fortunately or unfortunately) life snatches them away..

But there are times when it just informs you of the loss that you’ll meet and then stand back and watches how you deal with it. Oh am sure it has the best seat in the house a basket of popcorns and a smirk on its face..

That is when our test begins, it is a weird test. Weird because in every test you want to score for yourself.. in this one though you have to chose, for the more strongly you cling on to these people the more you hurt them.

These are the people who mean the most to you, but the harder you hold on to them, the more you’ll end up suffocating them. It is like giving a hug, it has to have the amount of warmth, and last for the precise moments.. because every extra second you hold on, adds to every extra second of “difficultness”.

So just let go when the time comes, that is the best thing that you can do for them. Don’t make things more difficult for them, for if they were your world, it is obvious you meant something to them.. so don’t question their grief..

It’s like destiny is trying to pull away a rope from you; the very rope that hold your life together. So you try to cling on to it.. you are fighting with destiny.. but what about the rope? J yes you are hurting it, so just let go.. the longer you cling on the more you hurt the rope.. and if you really hold on more too long.. then that same rope will cut through your skin.. its not the ropes fault it had no option, destiny is too strong..

So please don’t blame the rope for hurting you, because it had absolutely no intentions… let go…

But there is a catch, you shouldn’t be so nonchalant that the other person feels he/she didn’t mean anything to you..  So the challenge is in striking the correct balance..

It’s tough, but am failing and learning.. I have never had issues failing, always believed it to be a part of the learning curve. But in this I detest failing as it directly proportionate to the amount those I am trying to cling to..

Letting, not easy, but necessary  not for you maybe but for those you love..
