Intellectually, this brain knows that in order to make room for something new, you have to let go of something old. Like, when you buy a new dress; you are supposed to let go of an old piece. That way, you will always have room in your closet.
Intellectually, you understand this concept. In makes perfect sense. But emotionally, now that is a different story. This post is not about letting go of an old dress, though.
It is about something else.
It is about letting go of something you held on to for more than 8 years. You associate your identity with it. Without which, you have no idea how to define yourself.
So... How do we let go, emotionally?
Found some nice quotes and sayings from (ya, ya.. where else?.. From the land of all things positive and nurturing).. Pinterest!
(Ouch! A big thump on my forehead)
(There is a fine line between perseverance and clinging on to something dead)
(This I find, the hardest to accept.. That there are things, that cannot be; even after you have spent more than 8 years of your life trying to make it work)
(Yes, the negative emotions do formed some form of bondage on my spirit)
(Ok, working on this... )
