Letting Go

Letting go is accepting and loving others as they are, not as we would like them to be

02. Letting go is accepting that we cannot control or change another, that we can only control or change ourselves.


03. Letting go is encouraging others to make their own decisions and to learn from the results.


04. Letting go is allowing others to feel pain or depression, and to struggle through and grow at their own pace.


05. Letting go is suspending our judgment so that we can really hear what others say, doing our best to see the world through their eyes.


06. Letting go is releasing our belief that what others say, do, or believe about us as people can define our self-worth: it is not needing approval from others to believe we are valuable.


07. Letting go is understanding and acknowledging the pains and failures of the past, and releasing them: it is preferring to live in the only time where we can make a difference---the present.


08. Letting go is admitting that we are powerless in certain situations that the outcome is not in our hands.


09. Letting go is releasing our outdated images of others and ourselves.


10. Letting go is striving to be emotionally healthier every day and fostering emotional health in those we love.

Hello Phil! Thanks, This is a really good post. Sometimes things are a bit clearer when I look at them in black and white.
