Let it Go

How do you know when to let it go? How do you when its time for someone or something to leave your life. I'm talking in general whether its a friendship, intimate relationship, or maybe an item you just can't part with.

My problem is that I know I need to let go, but I'm afraid of letting go. Either I'm afraid or just don't want to.

I have a friend a person I have been friends with for 6 or more years, and now things have really changed. I have changed as a person and she has not. She is so negative most of the time and she is one of those people who talk about what they want but don't really strive to get it, like where is your motivation? I have out grown her. It took me losing my job to get a new outlook on things. I think about things so differently now, I appreciate my friends and family more, and I know just how strong I am.

Its funny because I started this post on Saturday and told some really good friends of mine about what I wanted to write about Saturday night, went to church on Sunday and the pastor spoke about this very subject. He spoke of letting go of old habits, old entanglements, and old expectations. He said that to let go, all you have to do is take that step forward and keep moving.

How do I take that step without feeling guilty about it? Should I feel guilty about it? That is a flaw of mine, beating myself about anything. Why should I feel guilty if I know that in the long run this is going to make me a better person.

Its time for me to take that first step, I'll make sure to let you know how it goes.
