Let Go

Okay so sometime back when I started this blog I discussed not knowing how to let go. So I found this online, and thought maybe somebody somewhere could use it

Six Steps to Letting Go of Your Past:

  1. Write, talk, draw, paint, or otherwise tap into your thoughts and memories. Letting go of your past means honoring your memories.
  2. Let go of the emotions and feelings of painful memories by letting them wash over you – you'll feel horrible during, but relieved and peaceful afterwards. Let go of your past by reliving it.
  3. Go back and talk to the people involved, if possible. Letting go of your past can mean going back.
  4. Share your real feelings; confess if it's appropriate. Letting go of your past means expressing your emotions. If you have to deal with your mistakes, then own up to your shame or guilt.
  5. Apologize and ask forgiveness if you need to. Letting go of your past means being vulnerable.
  6. Get help with uncontrollable urges to overeat, get stoned or drunk, or otherwise hurt yourself. Letting go of your past means burying your pride.


Note: I am pretty sure that this might not work for everyone. I can honestly say that I have been through most of these steps. I can say that it has made me better and stronger. Its a start, moving you on the right track, the rest is up to you =) Always be willing to grow. Enjoy your journey.
