Leaving Behind to Move Forward

There are times when a relationship has, simply, run its course. People come together for a reason.

Sometimes they continue to grow and learn together. These are the relationships that last.

Two people often come together to meet and fulfill a need, or explore a common interest. As long as the need is present or both still have the same interest, the relationship will continue.

Letting go of a relationship doesn’t make you a bad person. You are not meant to stand still or wait for others to catch up.

You may not be ready to go down the path another is going. Respect yourself. You may need more time or you may need to take another path.

It is natural for some people to drift out of your life. It doesn’t have to be an ugly thing. As you release past relationships with love, new ones will drift into your life. 

If a relationship ends badly, then let it go. Do not exhaust yourself trying to make it work.

Good relationships require work, compromise and understanding, but one party should not have to do all the work.

 

If all efforts to remedy the relationship have failed, then it might have evolved beyond its usefulness and must be released.

The decision is always personal, but when a relationship is only causing grief and stress then have no guilt about letting it go.

You free yourself and allow the other party the responsibility of taking charge of their own life. That is a difficult gift for some to accept, but it brings power and strength and will ultimately take the person to a better place.

Letting go is not abandonment, but release. 

Sometimes you will find yourself released by another. Do not try to follow, they will return at an appropriate time if it is meant to happen. If it is not, then you are better off.

Give yourself the gift of release, assured in the knowledge that you are all that you need, and other companions will follow in time.

Some relationships last a lifetime, others are fleeting. They all happen for a reason. A long relationship is not better than a short one. It is only shorter. A painful relationship can be a life-changing lesson.

Your relationship with Spirit will never abandon you. Even in the absence of all companionship fairies, angels and spirit guides hover about you sending you love and encouragement. 

You are never alone. ~Silas
