What is letting go

[nostalgia]

To “let go” does not mean to stop caring. It means I can’t do it for someone else.
To “let go” is not to cut myself off. It’s the realization that I can’t control another.
To “let go” is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands.
To “let go” is not to try to change or blame another. It’s to make the most of myself.
To “let go” is not to care for, but to care about.
To “let go” is not to fix, but to be supportive.
To “let go” is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being.
To “let go” is not to be in the middle, arranging all the outcomes, but to allow others to affect their own destinies.
To “let go” is not to deny, but to accept.
To “let go” is not to nag, scold, or argue, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and correct them.
To “let go” is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to take each day as it comes and cherish myself in it.
To “let go” is not to regret the past, but to grow and live for the future.
To “let go” is to fear less and to love more.

Now I wonder, my holding on is still harder than letting go...

Mukhang nahihirapan ka bro.

It is just a temporary state of mind. It will pass away, hopefully.

[rileyrider]

letting go.... means you need to do a lot of sacrifices on your side dahil alam mong u will feel the deepest pain and sadness just to let them have their own happiness and that means u really love the person.
coz' that's what i did bro...just recently.

Mine was as recent as yesterday. The timing of this post is uncanny.

Although for me letting go is simple cutting ties.

Back to topic..

Letting go also means, letting your partner find their own happiness even it means you're not part of it. Painful yes, but that is the best way than holding on. Holding on for me is more tough than letting go of someone who i think in the first place was never part of me. they move on and leave us not because they want to hurt us, but because just like in stories, their part has come to an end.

We should be happy that they became part of us. They have contributed by making us who we are right now.

Pinaka madaling solution e magkalimutan na lang.

So does it mean na naka "move on" ka na?

i dont know ha, pero let's face it mahirap mag let go ng ganun ganun na lang if malalim and matagal kayo magkasama.

i totally agree with you. what if spouse mo pala yun? pero kailangan mo
i let go dahil ayaw na nya. mas lalung mahirap, d ba?

Yup 'coz it's a decision that I did with my family.

Different case kung asawa. I'd hold on to the marriage for as long as I could. Except if my husband is hurting me physically or is doing drugs.

"Letting love go is never easy
But I love you so That's why I set you free And I know
Someday
Somehow
I'll find a way To leave it all behind me
Guess it wasn't meant to be But baby........."


somehow this part of the song is true

[uls]

letting go?

madali lang yan.

burn bridges. Cut ties. No communication. As in wala.

Problem with many people who break up is they still keep in touch...

pwede naman daw sila friends... (ya sure, sino niloko nyo?)

So ayan... yung isa nag get over na, ung isa di pa over... and will never get over...

[_Cathy_]

^^^ So true. It will only make things harder if people keep in touch

[rileyrider]

well, keeping in touch doesn't mean you can't get over the person. there
are times you cannot totally shutdown the person out of your life lalu na kung malalim talaga pinagsamahan nyo.

sometimes keeping in touch means you already accepted the situation na ganon na lang talaga ang relationship nyo. that you too can be really good
friends.

Pag BF GF pa lang I prefer total cut off. I'm sure the new BF/GF wouldn't appreciate the person keeping in touch with an ex.

Eventually you still have to totally forget about the person when you get married so you could spare yourself the trouble by forgetting about the person as soon as you decide to let go.

Of course, it's a different story for those that were married or had children together.
