People are wonderful. People are annoying. People are impressive. People are disappointing. Yes, I know. These statements contradict each other. But then, so do people. Not only do people contradict each other, they contradict themselves. We are all good and bad, great and terrible, capable and helpless. And none of us, if the truth be told, know quite which of these things we are going to be next. I've learned that everybody has flaws, if you want someone to be apart of your life, you learn to live with their flaws. I'm letting go of people I don't want in my life; even if it's because they don't want me in theirs.
Letting go is not to forget, not to think about or ignore. It doesn’t have any feelings of anger, jealousy or regret. Letting go isn’t winning or losing. It’s not about being proud. It’s not about obsessing and dwelling on the past. It isn’t about loss and it isn’t about defeat. To let go is to cherish memories, but to over come them and move on. Letting go is accepting. Letting go is having the courage to accept change. Letting go is growing up. I’m growing up, letting go. I'll miss my past, but the past is the past. No more mean words. No more mean thoughts.
I'm in a strange mood. I'm ready for Friday.
