Letting Go

One of the hardest lessons one will learn upon their spiritual journey, is learning to let go. The reason why so many people have a hard time with this concept is because we have been conditioned to being ok where we are comfortable. Only because we know this is not exactly what we want but it works, and your content with your life. Whatever we love, to the point where it can be considered unconditional love, we must learn to embrace what we have right in front of us instead of what can happen or what has happened to that object. When I say object, it can be anything that holds space in one’s heart. We must understand that it was a gift to embrace for the moment and just wait for the next blessing that is coming to you. Personally, it was my ex-wife and kids, I gave them love instead of myself, which lead me to control them into staying with me, the ex-wife, and when I said ok she took the kids and left.

This has been my lesson of letting go, and honestly. This is a rough lesson. The reason for which I made my kids everything in my life and she knew that taking them away with a fable made from her damaged ego to convince herself that it was a good move. I never had such a pain in my heart, even on this physical realm, my spirit hurt so badly that it trickled down to my physical. I would not ever wish that pain upon any person that breathes. Oddly enough, I see why she just left, but I see her just giving up. And my ego wanted to control this situation to the point to where I begged for her to stay. And she didn’t. That is when I learn that I really have no control of what happens in my life, the only thing I can control is how I react to the situation at hand.

What we must learn is to let go of those emotions that show up, to embrace them yes, but to also not to dwell in those emotions. To see why those emotions are arising and allow yourself to feel those motions because we are human. These emotions are just our human self’s reacting not our true self’s. What we also must learn upon this journey is that our thought energy will be sent back to us. “What ye sends out, returns to thee.” -Old Celtic Proverb and this is very true, because we must change our minds when learning to let go so that we do this in a healthier way verses sending out negative energy with those thoughts. Because that will return to you, and it may return even stronger than what was sent out!

Now what the goal is to learn to completely let go of everything. Realize that everything in our life is not meant to be forever, so we must embrace the present moment so when the time comes to let go it is much easier than trying to hold onto something that does not want to stay. So, with this now being mentioned, we need to learn to just be, nothing else but to just be. Not to allow our minds race or start drawing up false stories that are not even true but we convince ourselves that it is, Lets take control of our minds, our hearts, so that we can be more productive for society, and actually help the human race grow not only with education but also in the spiritual since as well.
