Ironic that this is today's prompt, as today, I let my grandmother go. She graced this Earth for more than 90, very, very full years.
Letting go does not mean forgetting. It does not mean pretending things never happened. It does not mean that the past is erased.Letting go means moving forward. It means picking up the pieces and creating a new picture. It means growing. It means forgiving.
As I let go to my grandmother, I will not forget all she has gifted my life with. I will remember the good, let go of the bad, and forgive the hurts.
Letting go means so many things. Let go of the bad to make room for the good. Let go and let the universe open to you, to the plans it has for you. Let go, and just be.
Grandma, you will be missed......
Day 30 Prompt: React to this term: Letting Go.

DeleteLetting go is never easy, is it? I hope you are able to give yourself time and space to let go in a self-compassionate way - a way that nurtures you and allows you to heal.
ReplyDeleteSelf-compassion.... such a lovely concept! ;)
