Letting go … How can you do that?

You can let go while focusing on the positive things in your life. You can be content with yourself instead of comparing yourself to others. There may be times you lose sight of the wonderful person you are.

You look in the mirror and see flaws. You don’t like what you see.
You try to change. You compare yourself to others and try to create the person you see in them.

Negative words spoken to you while growing up carve spaces in your mind. You look at those negative messages but may not fit into them now at all yet still believe them.
They’re difficult to erase. Your negative messages build until they sculpt your emotions while creating large crevices that need filling.

Only, you can change those negative messages.
Only, you can start to look at yourself and form the portrait you really are.
You can bring it forward.

You must never give up your strength of mind to accomplish this. Perhaps, by letting go you can change yourself into the real you.

You just have to be okay with yourself.

Namaste
I honor the place in you
in which the entire universe dwells.
I honor the place in you
which is of Love, and of Truth,
of Light and of Peace.
When you are in that place in you
and I am in that place in me.
We are One
