August is a very strange month for me, and you my blog readers get blessed with a second posting this month about love and emotions.
They say if you love something enough when you let it go it will always come back to you. What they failed to mention is that if the thing you let go doesn't love you back in the same way it won't come back.
Everyone is different when it comes to how they feel about certain things, for some people letting go is very easy. For example most people go to the cinema or to a baseball game with friends and they get home to find the ticket stub in there pocket. Usually they throw it away, but me for some unexplained reason, I've always held onto them. I have a box filled with mementos that mean nothing to anyone else and mean everything to me. Letting go has never been one of my strong points to put it into other words.
When things don't work out for me in the way I hoped, I'm the type of person who will try again in a different way to make it work. While this attribute works in academics it doesn't seem to work in life. In order to become a more complete person I think its very important that I begin to practice the art of letting go. I've started by taking small steps, for example I went through my wallet and threw out things that I normally would hold onto. I found an old LUAS ticket, some ATM receipts and of course some cinema stubs.
I'm a firm believer that the best people on the planet are the ones who are very well-rounded in all walks of life. For as long as I can remember, letting go has been my weakness, so I think its time I started to change it.   ¶ 8:53 AM
