#letting-go

"We can't be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don't have something better."

"The greatest step towards a life of simplicity is to learn to let go."

"Last night I lost the world, and gained the universe."

"No book can ever be finished. While working on it we learn just enough to find it immature the moment we turn away from it"

"No matter how much suffering you went through, you never wanted to let go of those memories."

"You must learn to let go. Release the stress. You were never in control anyway."

"Your attachment to unhealthy people and bad habits, which offer you no real control, is why you’re spiritually dying and living a life out of balance."

"You will evolve past certain people. Let yourself."

"Sometimes it takes a heartbreak to shake us awake & help us see we are worth so much more than we're settling for."

"It is important that we forgive ourselves for making mistakes. We need to learn from our errors and move on."

"A Plan B life can be just as good or better than a Plan A life. You just have to let go of that first dream and realize that God has already written the first chapter of the new life that awaits you. All you have to do is start reading!"

"No boundary or barrier surrounds the heart of a person that loves their self and others."

"To love everyone unconditionally does not mean to give everyone your unconditional time. Sometimes, to love completely, we must never see someone again. This, too, is love. This is giving someone the freedom to exist and be happy, even if it must be without you."

"We are all teachers, we all have knowledge and experiences that can teach others."

"If you want to fly on the sky, you need to leave the earth. If you want to move forward, you need to let go the past that drags you down."

"Never rearrange your life in order to meet Mr. Darcy half way. If he couldn’t see your worth at the moment you met then he won’t two years later. May the halls of Pemberly be filled with his regrets and your life filled with thankfulness because of this revelation."

"Sometimes the door closes on a relationship, not because we failed but because something bigger than us says this no longer fits our life. So, lock the door, shed a tear, turn around and look for the new door that's opened. It's a sign that you're no longer that person you were, it's time to change into who you are. It's going to be okay."

"I just wanted to tell you that I understand if you go. It’s okay if you have to leave us. It’s okay if you want to stop fighting."

"Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure."

"True regret is knowing you missed your only opportunity to be simply a good friend to someone that was exactly like you."
