Let Go

Probably the most difficult thing in a relationship. Letting Go does not mean we love any less. The love, the infatuation, the liking is left with a void and that void is filled by pain. But if we are capable of loving someone so profoundly means that we are capable of deep emotions and that in itself is something we have to proud of.

I know to let go hurts a lot, so much so that we want to hold on the every last moment that we can before we finally have to let go. We try all sorts of things. Emotional Blackmail to crying to anger. But is it worth it. Isn’t letting go part of loving someone. The last time I had to let go was three years back.

She was so perfect, I just didn’t want her to go. But then I let it go. Holding on to someone is like caging a bird. You will have the body but not the soul. You don’t want to live with the fact that the person in front of you gave up his/her dreams for you. And you don’t want the person to resent you for stopping them from exploring themselves.
