Letting go
Got this in my hotmail just now:
"Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. "What is it you would let go of today?
By letting go, you're taking that foot off the brakes. You're moving @ 100kmph, downhill in the game of life, and you take your foot off the brakes?
Many say life is about taking risks. Yes, that's true. But not unnecessary risks. Maybe not remove your foot off the brakes, but controlled braking? Possible. That's calculated risk.
Sometimes i wonder, i'm still at 5 degree slope of life, still young, still inexperienced, yet i seem to be unable to control. What will happen when it reaches the 25 degree, or 45 degree slope? Would i survive?
Have i been too reliant on a co-driver to steer me? Have i been too comfortable, knowing the co-driver could help me?
Someday, when the co-driver leaves, what will become of me? Can i make it on my own?
...having i been thinking too much again?
