Every day I take small steps… sometimes I take steps back, but I’m not giving up the fight. I hope that someday I will have learned to let it all go and be ok with it all.

How to let go of the past
It made me
me again
 "holding on to the past nearly caused me to lose my future."
How I did it: I had a really rough time whilst at school, i had grief from other students and the teachers, not because i was a trouble maker... because i was an easy target. Lessons & tips: If something from the past is affecting you now, think about it, challenge it and move on, don't dwell on the bad stuff, it'll only stop the good stuff.

How I did it: Time was a major factor in really accepting reality as it is now rather than how I wanted reality to be. I've finally realized that I deserve better than someone who treats me shabbily, and I deserve someone who whole-heartedly wants to be with me, who wholeheartedly appreciates me for who I am. I've been getting there slowly over the last several months, and although I feel sad today, I feel I am ready to truly let go of… Read how I did it…

How I did it: i tried a lot of things. therapy, support groups, moving. each of them helped a little. but the wisdom that i needed appeared out of no where. it was few and far between. once in a while someone would speak something that really stuck to me. and that's what i would base my life around until i came to the next thing. the past is really enticing. its so easy to dwell and nourish the desire to look back into the past. no matter how much you … Read how I did it…

It made me
How I did it: Well after my last failed relationship, I took some time off for myself. I had been married for 15 years and went right into another relationship. I didn't know who I was without someone, basically. SO I learned all about myself for about 10 months and then when I DID meet the man of my dreams, I was ready for him. Once I fell in love and felt what TWO way love was like, the past didn't even matter. I came to peace with everything that ha… Read how I did it…

How I did it: Letting go of the past doens't mean forgeting it; it doesn't mean that you have to think about everything that happened (good or bad) as something that never did happened in reality. It did. We just have to face it, learn something from it and let it go. I stopped living in the past and this makes me feel free. Read how I did it…

What is required for effective change is continuity of sincere effort to release and let go of inefficient thought patterns from the past.

I don’t know where life’s going, but soon it will be gone. I hope the wind that’s blowing helps me carry on. Turn on the radio, baby listen to my song. Turn on the night light baby, I’m gone

How much one’s clothes reflect the person you are and the history of the clothes too…
You see an outfit and immediately the thought comes of where it came from ie the shop… the memory of the day you got it… also where you wore it and what happened on that occasion too…
OMG I NEVER thought to associate my life with the clothes in the wardrobe.

i really want to let go of the past… ive felt like the past year and a half ive been in a limbo… and i realised that escaping and entertaining myself with ideas of the future is what has kept me in this limbo for all this time…i havent really progressed
what happened was that i was really in love with my last relationship.. which then fell to pieces…
i left him to come visit my family for a few months..my sister had gone to jail and was coming out so i wanted to see her.. which turned into a year and a half now… thinking in simple terms.. thats probably y i feel it so hard to let go mentally… because my intention was always to go back to be with him…
in the end ..while visiting my family.. it all fell apart.. i broke up with him bcuz i was insecure and felt i had to bcuz he lied and he cheated on me…and i was hurt and angry by how he treated me. all we had was bad communication and mistrust of eachother ..in between a strong sense that i loved him.. and i know he missed me too..in between the fights…well.. we reached a breaking point with a lack of respect and honesty… but he was the closest friend i had… i put all my thoughts into seeing him again and waiting that day to fix everything…. i know it was silly .. but thats what you do when you are so infatuated and your life becomes a mess.. you just want a way out.. it happened that my dad gained a drug problem while i had been living away.. we discoverd it when he left my house totally unexpectedley … disapeared abroad to be with another family… i was devastated emotionaly.. he basicaly cheated and left my mum..and forgot about his kids to be with someone else.. i never in a million years would have thought this to happen. i think all this time has helped me to come to an acceptance of the past events. but i am not who i used to be… i lost myself and my sense of all i knew… to be completley honest, it was a big shock. all this happened at the same time we lost our house to the bank. so i stayed here with my mom and my brother to help her move house and basically be her support…i had to.. but it was awful time too for me… my bf stopped contact with me.. and i felt totaly dependant on him.. probably making things worse because i was in such a bad state,... anyways… despite all the problems we went through i wanted to see him again… he ended up leaving to his home country… now hes there.. after so much time…i need to let it go ..
at the time i left.. we were having fights..and problems.. we had got back together recently ..but i was totaly insecure, i thot he had been unfaithful.. he was insecure too.. and he was illegal in the country where we were living…
.. without being able to actally do anything about acheiving that dream and my ideas… im writign this now because ive realised that i believed i let go of the past.. but i just let go temporarily.. still thinking about the future has made me realised i am daydreaming too much.. it fills my head everyday about what to do about my last relationship .. and my life… i want to believe i need closure..but i gues a bit of my heart never wanted closure.. so its hard..

I would like to do this. Only recently I have come to the realization that I have not let go of anything. I just repressed everything through the years. I hope through personal reflection and therapy I will be able to learn to live my life. :-)
