Just a quick thought: I have never been able to wrap my mind around the
idea of "let it go," when something bad happens (whether in real life,
or in my imagination.) But what if I change that to "let it be?" Let the
pain be what it is. Sadness. Loss. Grief. Hearts take time to heal, and
nothing I can do will make that happen any faster. But sadness can not
keep me from living a life that is meaningful and fulfilling. I can let
it be what it is: a temporary emotional state. It will pass, like
traffic on the highway or water in the river, and some new feeling will
take its place. I have never been any good at letting go of hurt. But
maybe I can let it be, and bring it with me as I live a life that is
about the things that matter to me.
