Let Go and Grow

September 8, 2011 1:42am CST
I can particularly guarantee that, if you are continually frustrated in your efforts to grow either by meeting someone new-after a failed relationship, or finding a new career path, or even new friends, that there are vestiges of holding on to earlier events which are stopping your progress. i became more and more convinced that in order to move ahead in your life you really have to leave behind what is behind. The Biblical metaphor for this phenomenon is Lot's wife turning into a pillar of salt as she looked behind her to see Sodom burnt on the ground. Unless we let what has passed truly be over, its ghost continues to haunt us, and actually hampers the arrival of the wished - for event. This process can actually go on for years. So if there is anything right now that you truly want and it is just not happening, ask yourself what you have not let go of that might possibly be in the way.

I have been in many relationships in my time that have failed, and I am the first to admit that moving on is much harder than it possibly should be. The hardest relationship that I've ever had to get over lasted for four years, and I was always in love with him much more than he was in love with me. In fact, looking back, I often have to question whether he actually loved me at all or whether he was just saying that he did because he thought that it would make me happy to hear him saying that. I am over him now, thank goodness, and I think that you just have to throw yourself into your every day life. See your friends, see new people who might be your partner in the future, but, and this is the most important thing, you must learn from whatever mistakes you might have made in your past. If you can do this, then you will be able to grow and learn from your experiences.

I think to be able to move maybe after a break-up,first accept that it has happened and then forget everything.With this you are able to have a new inner spirit,any old self is gone and you are now a new person ready to face the reality.
