“That is why it is so important to let certain things go. To release them. To cut loose. People need to understand that no one is playing with marked cards; sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. Don’t expect to get anything back, don’t expect recognition for your efforts, don’t expect your genius to be discovered or your love to be understood. Complete the circle. Not out of pride, inability or arrogance, but simply because whatever it is no longer fits in your life. Close the door, change the record, clean the house, get rid of the dust. Stop being who you were and become who you are.
I relate to this a lot. I have been “cleaning shop” you can say. I made a decision to remove all that “does not belong” in my life anymore, all that is negative, all those who do not “fit” my ideology in life, those I feel I would have to put a show on in front of just to get by.
I agree with Coelho: what you have been over the years should not dictate who you are today or who you become. People change. Let go of the old and bring in the new. Sometimes, things or people just don’t belong in your life anymore. Its sad, but it is something that must be accepted and viewed in a mature sense.
Free yourself to be what you ARE… not what you WERE.
I used to have almost 400 friends on Facebook… now I have 100. No more negativity… I need to cleanse myself, and cleanse my life.
