Letting Go

In recent years as I become older and wiser, I have come to appreciate the moments, things and people that are no longer in my life. I can recall countless times when I was in a relationship ;both romantic and friendship, and things got sour and no matter what the other person and/or I did it felt like something negative always came up.

Looking back on those situations when I held on to a person , place or thing, only to leave it behind later, either on my own or by design, I wish that what ever led to my separation would have happened sooner. I realize now that whatever I have in my life today tomorrow and for the long term, if it's meant for me to have, I should not have to feel stress or anxiety when I think about it.

When a person, situation or material thing makes you feel better if you leave it behind, then it's time to let go. By letting go you give the right person, situation or material room to move into your life.

Bearing it All

On this first day of the year, I am taking time to count my blessings. To acknowledge the great people in my life and the abundance in my life.

As I enter this new year with my partner I reflect on how far our relationship has gone and how far we want it to go. We have had many ups and downs. But in order to have an honest relationship with another person I most first be honest with myself. Acknowledging my flaws and assets, realizing where I am weak and where I am strong. Knowing what I want out of the relationship and knowing what my partner wants. Compromising but never giving up on myself and my dreams.

You could say that relationships are about being venerable, bearing it all. Trusting someone else and trusting yourself.


Happy and Prosperous New Year !!!
