OVERJOYED MELANCHOLY

CHAPTER 8 : THE ART OF LETTING GO

To sacrifice it like the leaves of a branch sacrifice themselves each year just to show the absolute truth of life is letting go.

We often confuse letting go with hate , anger , jealousy , and what not , but in this chapter we are going to see what letting go looks like and what is the reality of letting go also what is something we confuse letting go with.

We realise that we're losing things , but we realise it when we lose it fully, and that's the moment we have to let it pass , and let it go to the universe. But are we really letting go of things properly? Or it's just we are covering it up with a mask of ignorance and hate ? Well , maybe we have to know what letting go actually means .

WHAT LETTING GO IS?

Imagine you love something so much that you just can't live without it , but in order to achieve something else you've to sacrifice that thing , and the thing you are going to achieve after sacrificing it is very precious to your heart too , so are you going to let the thing you love so much go? Or are you gonna stay attached to it till eternity ?

Well I would say that sacrificing looks good , because you can't let it go until you're attached to that thing. Each and every day when you're attached to it you miss opportunities and leave chances and changes behind without even realising it.

Now imagine you love a person very much that if they leave you at a certain point , you'll give up. In this situation what are you going to do ? Are you going to stay that way forever ? Or are you gonna leave it all for their happiness? Maybe leaving it all looks good , and it is good. Because this is what letting go is.

We hear it a lot from our friends and family that we should let go of that thing or the person we love a lot , and we all do that , but the process it takes is a bit wrong , the steps taken to let go are wrong. Letting go is a part of love , and love is complicated yet simple to understand . Letting go is sacrificing , but the question is , how to let go properly?

HOW TO LET GO?

Letting go is nothing but a part of love , and love is simply called sacrificing in the language of god. It really depends on the way we let go of someone , because the main question here is that are we really letting them go?

To let go , love is important. With love we can easily let go of anything or anyone we want to. Whether it is a thing or a person.

It's important to understand the aspects , if it's about letting go of an object or something you like , it's really important to know why you are letting it go , because sometimes letting go leads to better opportunities and changes in our life and it is really necessary to let go .

Another aspect goes with letting go of a person you really love . If ever in life you are in a condition where you have to let go of them , just let them go. Not because you have to , but because they want you to.

If sacrificing is love , then the satisfaction of the other person is the main thing you should really do , and that's how you let go with love. Don't force it , it'll happen automatically , but in order to happen , you should be lovable , and let it happen.

NOTE FOR THE READERS

you can forget anything , but never forget to love , because loving can heal you , love can teach you everything in every stage of your life , letting go will be easy if you know how to love.

LOVE !
