243 - Exploring the art of letting go.

All things are temporary, even what you love most.

What a beautiful, fucked up and timeless lesson we will all come to know at some point.

When giving your absolute all to something, it’s common to become afraid of letting go of the familiarity we’ve come to know.

There’s nobility in never giving up.

When you love right, you love passionately. If it’s real, you’re gonna have to fight for it.

If you only go to eighty percent with anything and find contentment there, you’ll fail to see the fruits of sweet magic that come from going all the way.

But when you give it your all, and it becomes clear the end is near, you only sacrifice yourself by holding on.

What’s the right balance then, given love equates to sacrifice?

You must push yourself to the point of being broken, burned and struck down by your own ignorance.

To love is to give someone the power to destroy you and trust they don’t use it.

But when they pull the trigger?

Rock bottom.

But from here, you have an opportunity to rise again.

The pain will leave a scar, a marker that serves as a reminder of both the beautiful and painful memories.

Beauty and pain exist on the same spectrum. Can you smile in spite of suffering, finding gratitude for the lessons learned along the way?

When the next time comes to open your heart, will you have the courage to show up and see through the previous experience of being broken?

All times of darkness lead to brighter days.

Look up to the stars, pray.

Show us the way home with our innocence still intact.

You’re never truly lonely when connected to your heart.

Each day is an opportunity for a new start.

Next time you’re struggling for control, remember what happened today and choose to let go.

Keep your heart soft but your mind strong.

It may feel like a mistake losing yourself in love, but you can close your eyes knowing it was worth giving your all.

Change is coming so take that weight of your shoulders.

Set your sight on the horizon, move on.

Let the seeds of new beginnings take root, one day flowering to set your heart free.
