When U Learn to Let Go

They say that when you learn to let something or someone go freedom comes. In a way it really is true because when you, for example, can't live with a person because he or she hurts you, there comes a moment when your patience says loud and clear NO to your heart and refuses to endure the pain caused by the person you love. At these instants you learn to let go things and people that torture you in their own loving or sadistic (or all in one) way.
Of course, you may feel certain relief when you say good-bye in similar situations and i.e. sort of let a person and i.e. a part of yourself go, and yes, it may bring you freedom just as the juicy quotation promises. But will you need this freedom and what for will you need it then? Guess the answer to this question is too obvious for us not to spell it out.
There are cases when we just have to learn to let go just because we have no other choice, just because we are only humans who make mistakes, who depend on circumstances of the (often) cruel and material world, who have such parasites as foolish pride and some childish defensiveness which we are often unable to get rid off – till it's too late and the power of good-bye is in action, that is.
In any case, no matter what emotions saying good-bye to things or people that hurt you or bring you discomfort results in, there is still no other way out but letting go of everything that deprives you of sacred peace of mind.
