FFT: Let Go!

Friday Food For Thought
Many of us were taught when we were young that when you do wrong we apologize and correct what we did wrong. As we got older we come to realize that everyone does not live by this rule. There are moments in life were we find that we will be done wrong. It could be physical abuse, divorce, financial blows, underhanded deals, or harsh words and we expect the other person or party correct what they did wrong. But to our surprise nothing is given in return, not even an apology or recognition by the person that they are wrong.
There are only two responses we can have: internalize the anger and become bitter or let go! Bitterness only closes our hands not to let go the past and keep replaying past memory tapes of us being done wrong. Most of all bitterness keeps us from grabbing hold to the blessing in front of us all because we are afraid to let go the negativity of the past. I wish I could tell you that if you let go you will not be hurt again but that is not true. But I can tell you if you do not let go, you will not feel the joy that you will gain more out of life.
It’ is ok….
….to Let Go!
