Live, and Let Go

Have you ever had the reminiscence of something in your former days?

Just thinking of every attainable way you could have altered it, made it last longer or finally made it work?

You spend your days, hours, minutes and each second thinking about it, you wake up thinking about it, you can't sleep or you don't have enough sleep because your thinking about it.

You go through your daily life thinking about what could have been, you go to bed hoping and praying that it will come back or it will change.

Nothing lasts forever, you go through your life thinking about it, thinking about yesterday but not today. Your in denial with yourself, having heartaches and headaches regretting.

We're all young, all young at heart, yes we are reckless and yes we are too daring but we are alive!

We all make mistakes in life, its a part of living and its a part of growing and you never stop growing, we meet people we love people but we also lose those people but that's the way life works.

Letting go doesn't mean you are weak or you are giving up

No

Letting go is a part of life, letting go is facing your fears to open new doors

And letting go, means growing up

Be strong enough to let go and just be patient enough to wait for what you truly deserve.

Author's Note

Close your eyes
Clear your heart
and let go

The first question really made me stay and read the poem. And I'm glad I did. As I was reading it I kept thinking "yes, yes", nodding like you could see me reading it, lol. The last line really got to me and it's something that I will think about this entire day. Thank you for sharing :)

[Joey Nizz]

Lol I get you, I sometimes do the same if I was reading something that my mind got hooked on finishing.
Im really glad that you've liked it!
Thanks for reading Giullia ^^

All a part of getting to know oneself better I think ... reminds me of a ten day silent meditation I did called Vipassana. You get to did up al lot of the past and observe it when you concentrate only on the in and out of breath through your norstils. Man you did up stuff you haven't though about in many a year ... then it's all there layed out either for judgement, but judgement is worthless seeings as the past no longer exists - or - you can accept it and let it go.

Nice words my friend - TRUTH !

Glad I read that X

[Joey Nizz]

Thank you i'm glad you think so, and your right I agree with you when you said that the past no longer exists, we should just let go, it wont come back and we cant change it.

Thank you again for your review. :)

welcome X X

[rowan.taylorrr]

this is very true. there are so many things i would change if i could, going back and changing things sound marvelous. letting go is hard, you wrote this very well :)

[Joey Nizz]

It would be easier if we could right? to go back and change it, but maybe what happened have happened for a reason, we might not know the reason but its a good reason to remember, a good lesson that we have learned from it.
Letting go is hard, but it only makes us stronger as we go.

Thank you for reviewing :)

[rowan.taylorrr]

yes, it would be easier if we could go back. so much easier

[Joey Nizz]

Yea I agree, but what to do this is how life goes.

[rowan.taylorrr]

yes very true, well done :)

Patience... Deep breath... In... Out... Patience... Not letting ourselves dwell on negativity can be a MONUMENTAL task... One that requires most of my spare time, at least... You really do bring encouragement to written form, and that takes a big heart... Thank you, and encouragingly penned...!

[Joey Nizz]

Your very much welcome and thank you for views and thoughts :)

[Tazeen Ahmed]

This is so convincing and relieving..
Life is a race
We all have different paces
Different speeds...
But, we all complete this race
We run after success, nor excellence!
This was worth reading!!
Awesome:)

[Joey Nizz]

I agree with you 100% thank you for this comment and for your review :)

[Carol Cashes]

You said very eloquently what I've told others: sometimes it's not quitting - it's walking away. Wisdom comes when we recognize the right time to do that. Your pieces show your lessons learned and I should think stand as encouragement to those who struggle with these lessons.

[Joey Nizz]

I am glad that you are also thinking the same by telling others abut this, and yes at the right time everything falls into place.

Thank you for your reviews, and thank you for standing for encouragement with those who struggle.

[Tabby Mac]

Love your encouraging messages!! Love this one we all need to hear it! Sometimes I get stuck in a glitch, it's hard to recognize sometimes. What a great reminder to keep in the present!
For the past is only a distraction from being here and now!
Great write and read!

[Joey Nizz]

Im really glad you liked this one Tabby, we have to remind our selves about who we are and that we are capable of greatness because we are great even if we dont feel like it, no one will give you a pat on the shoulder, so give it to your self because you made it this far!

Thank you again for your review ^^
