Letting Go...Moving Forward

Sometimes in life we hold onto moments that move us, that make us feel. When people can make us "feel something powerful," for whatever reason it may be, it's sometimes hard to learn to let go.  

It's never easy not knowing where the road will take us, but it's great to have like minds along with us on the journey. But people change. We all grow. Sometimes letting go of the ones we love the most is the only true way to love that person. But when you do,be prepared to love unselfishly. If you profess your love, be prepared to be the only one professing. 

Everyone falls in love. It happens. It's hard enough to find true love. But sometimes when two seemingly like people are on the same highway, and one decides to make a turn, it's better for the other to just keep on going and never look back. Love is never easy. 

Something may trigger memories, but such is the human brain. It holds onto the past, the positive, and the negative. The brain, connected with the soul, is an amazing and sometimes destructive machine. These lessons of letting go will never get easier when something powerful strikes. Sparks fly and fires ignite. Too late. Sometimes that fire goes out, but others keep burning with the left over cinders.

If I could put my physical strength into use in my mind, I'd be unstoppable.Why shut that emotion out? Pain is sometimes part of being. So no matter where this road takes me, I know I'll have like minded travelers with me. I just hope that I can keep on learning and growing from my journey.
