 
 Let
it go
Let it go, what does that mean? For me it is something, what keeps
your mind very busy, or something where you are very attached to
to give away, and to put it in Gods hand. This can handle about
many issues. I will give you some examples.
The desire to the true love, a fine relationship, when you are single.
The desire to a baby, when you are undesireble childless.
The pain of traumatic experiences in your life.
A problem where you are searching a solution for.
A ideal what you want to realize.
It is not holding the past.
It is not suppress your feelings of grief and pain
For me it is to have the courage to feel and to live through your
feelings, and then to leave it in Gods hand.
in love, Anneke |
TO LET IT GO, YOU NEED LOVE
"letitgo" does not mean, I don't care anymore,
it means that I can't do it for somebody else.
"letitgo" does not mean, that I run away,
it is the notion that I can't control somebody else.
"letitgo" is to admit powerlessness, which mean
that I don't have the results in my heands.
"letitgo" is not to blame somebody else,
it is making it yourself comfortable.
"letitgo" is not quick arrange something, but to support.
"letitgo" is not to judge, but to allow the other to be human.
"letitgo" is not standing in the center and rule everything,
but making it possible to let others decide about their own lot.
"letitgo" is not deny, but accept.
"letitgo" is not nag, abuse or quarrel,
but looking for your own shortcomings and improve them.
"letitgo" is not to force everything to your will,
but taking everyday as it comes, and to be happy with that.
"letitgo" is don't have regrets of the past, but to grow by it
and living in the here and now, for the future.
"letitgo" is having less fear and more love.

The God Abandons Anthony
When suddenly, at midnight, you hear
an invisible procession going by
with exquisite music, voices,
don't mourn your luck that's failing now,
work gone wrong, your plans
all proving deceptive -- don't mourn them uselessly.
As one long prepared, and graced with courage,
say goodbye to her, the Alexandria that is leaving.
Above all, don't fool yourself, don't say
it was a dream, your ears deceived you:
don't degrade yourself with empty hopes like these.
As one long prepared, and graced with courage,
as is right for you who were given this kind of city,
go firmly to the window
And listen with deep emotion, but not
with whining, the pleas of a coward;
listen -- your final delectation -- to the voices,
to the exquisite music of that strange procession,
and say goodbye to her, to the Alexandria you are losing.
~K.P. Kavavis~Also impressed by the
words of Kavafis? another great poem

Let it go and trust God
Just as a child, - in tears - comes
to us with a broken toy,
so did I go to God with my broken dreams
because I trust Him.
But in place of that I let Him calm work on it,
I hung impatient around Him
and told Him again and again how I would
repair them, if I were Him.
At the end I snatched them out of his hands
and cried disabled:
'Why don't you hurry up?'
'because', He said,
'you don't let them go.'
from: Turning Hurts into Halo's from Robert H. Schuller.
