I was talking to someone recently about a situation they were going through and I told them that it sounded like they were having trouble letting go. So told them to think of life in chapters. When one ends another begins. nothing is meant to last forever and some if not all things in life are only seasonal but unfortunately being human means we have trouble grasping the idea of having to let go of things that once were but no longer is meant for us. we strive to hold on to things that have served their purpose in our life, and refuse to move on to anything new because we are scared of what’s ahead but what we fail to understand is, when you feel like you’re at your worst..better is already on the way and you’ll let it pass right in front of you because you’ve planted yourself in what once was and it will cause you to miss what is meant to be. We have to learn how to uproot ourselves from the past so we don’t miss out on our future... by the time I’d finished telling this to them I realized I was not only speaking to them but I was speaking to myself. For months I was holding on to my old self refusing to allow myself to grow. it got to the point where I got lost in sadness and was unable to recognize myself, But when I reminded myself of what I already knew I was able to let go of the sadness and smile again. These pictures are the start of a new chapter and I’m feeling like this one might be the best one... Please remember that while it may look bad right now.. better is on the way 🥰
