Letting Go As The Year Wraps Up

Yesterday afternoon I got a call from a childhood friend who is a twin, back then they were the envy of the streets because they were half caste and beautifully created by God. Everyone wanted to be their friend.

One of the twins called me and we got chatting, he told me that his twin sister called him from her hospital room.  She’s been in a coma for almost a year now and he thinks that entering the holiday season and New Year with his sister back at his side would be a priceless feeling.  He talked about how they actually spent the entire night together, talking and laughing even though she was utterly weak, but ofcourse surprisingly coherent, it was a moment he would never forget and take for granted peradventure she recovers because at that point a thousand and one thing popped up in his mind that they allow take over their bond.

What caught my attention for obvious reasons was the fact they had major altercations and misunderstanding, a month before his twin sister was involved in an accident and they didn’t speak to each other for an entire month .

And today, honestly, neither one of them can even remember why they were so damn mad.  In his words, I can still remember vividly that he said that they were just being stubborn and holding on to the wrong thoughts and that he is  so grateful that they were able to let it go and get another chance to love each other because no one Is ever promised tomorrow so why hold on to a grudge when you ain't sure you would wake up to make things right again.

Wow! Immediately  I said to myself “Talk about a wake-up call and a great reminder for all of us to LET IT GO”. 

This year, I have had my ups and downs, been beaten by people I gave my all to, people I trusted and I almost became inhumane and bitter but each second that passes by a still small voice keeps telling me, regardless of all the nuisance I had constituted, I am still standing only by a grace given to me by a higher force that I didn't even deserve, so why not let go the hurt caused by humans. That’s what they are humans and when you realize that they can never be better beyond being humans, you would stop feeling disappointed at the hurt they have caused you.

Now since the New Year is just around the corner, I think it’s a perfect time right now to start letting go of the wrong things.  Wouldn’t you agree?

Some, it will be hard to forgive or let go because of the magnitude of their wrong doing, yes, give it time but don't set the grudge in there for too long. Come around forgiveness when deep in your subconsciousness you have dealt with your anger towards them.

I am the last person who would kid myself making peace when i am still hurting but when i do come around you would know that i no longer hold it against you.

So today, I challenge you to let go your temper, your fears, your hatred, your hurt. Step aside from them and no one deserves to the pleasure of seeing you unhappy.

Allow me some music, when I come back I will give you obvious thirty things you should let go before new year, as a matter of fact, you need to start letting them go now. It won’t be easy but it will be worth it.
