We want answers. "What happened? Why did you leave? Is there someone else? What can I do to change your mind?" On and on the questions will go. We pour over the what ifs and the should haves, and bargain with anything and everything to have the complete story.
This is so tough. An incomplete story can be brutal, but the truth is, it's unnecessary. I know I know...in the thick of things we all want answers. So I am fully aware that this is easier said than done, but letting go is a beautiful practice.
Staying stuck in the what ifs keeps us from being present, and keeps us from trusting in our own resiliency. Letting go gives us peace and freedom and let's us sink into the here and now. We can begin to see what's happening around us instead of second guessing the past and fearing the future. Being present is one of the most critical practices we should all strive to master. It suggests that no matter what has happened you believe that you will make it to the other side. Choose peace when you can. Gently guide yourself back to the present. Be in the here and now. Trust the process. Let go of what you cannot control, and be certain that what is passing needs to. Everything you need is with you if you let yourself seek it. “
Good advice
