do you hang on to things that bother you? have a tough time letting go?

i had to finally let go of a couple things this past week, i don't know what finally moved and motivated me.

one was someone who owes me a great deal of money. i finally realized i am never going to see that money again and decided for my own stress level, to let it go. to stop worrying over it and being angry about it.

the other was i let go of a great many very literate and beautiful love letters that did nothing but make me feel miserable when i read them. from my soul mate who died. it took me 4 years. i made a decision to stop torturing myself. mainly i didn't want anyone else to read them after i am gone. i deleted and also burned in the fireplace. kept all the photos.

i feel a little lighter albeit sad. but it's not an unbearable sadness. just a little one.

That would be a big hell no. I tend to deal with things quickly & move on.

When I was younger, hell yeah!
Now, not so much.

Little things, I let go of right away. Big things like LC described, take some processing and pondering, but eventually they get released.

Good for you LC - smart lady.

Aw, sad story but a healthy procedure.

Fuck No you all owe me and until I get what I'm due, it's all about revenge.

Truthfully I have had some pretty tough stuff happen in my life, some I will always remember but in a positive way ,others have been filed in the appropriate pigeon hole of past bullshit.

Material things are easy to let go, but hell, do the dirty on me and I'm like an elephant with an awful long memory.

That's different, babe. You don't have to forget something in order to let it go.
