    True. Sometimes you gotta let go to let in value.

    A good write full of emotions.

    Yes, it's hard to let go sometimes especially if you had something special though i feel to be truly happy we have to let go of those that held our hearts and broke them because if we don't then we won't trust again nor wil we be truly happy. Though we will still probably think about them we should forget about the what ifs and should have been because it won't help us in our search for true happiness and you know my thoughts on that.

    Take care and stay happy,
    Em

      Thanks Em, I totally agree, some times you got to let go in order to start living again. As you well know, it's hard sometimes to walk away.

    Dear Brenda, I don't what is worse hanging on or to finally let go. But there comes a time when enough is enough. It's a process and are we ready to accept it for what it is. There were times I told myself that I need more and deserve so much better. Not to look back is easier said than done somewhat there always be some kind of mixed emotions. In time we are free from these unresolved issues and moving away and forward. Playing with someone's emotions is wrong. Thank you for sharing and all the best

      Dagmar, thank you for your words of wisdom, just like Em, you know what's its like to hang on and being tortured because of it. This originally was written about my eldest daughter and I finally for my own sanity had written her and told her as such but I had left open a door if she wanted to ever have a relationship with me. I had to move on and repair my shredded heart. It was the hardest thing I ever did. Thankfully she decided that I was worth having a relationship with and now we are the best of friends. It was brutal until then, but I had to let her go to get her back. Take care Dagmar!

    Hello Brenda,

    Sometimes it is the love that means the most to us that seems to do the most damage and there comes a time when we simply have to move on and let it go for our own good.
    The problem is, when that point comes, it can be devastating - even if it is the right thing, which reminds me of the adage: 'the right path isn't always the easiest'.

      Sir L, thank you! Yes, I totally agree with what you said. At that time in my life and for my own sanity I had to let go. Fortunately things have worked out for the better and my daughter has come back into my life. We have a wonderful relationship, it's different but the same, if that makes sense. Take care-Brenda
