I think I have done a pretty good job at letting things go.. It is really tough.. but I do it.. basically for my sanity.. if I didnt .. I would be dead due to the stress already...
. As much as I love him, I don't need him, and I don't need to stay attached to someone who doesn't want to be here.
This is just so true-I tried begging and pleading in a former life-all I learned is people with kick and stomp you when you are down. Now if someone wants to leave I just stand back AND THEN CHANGE THOSE DAMN LOCKS!
I just told a guy I was seeing that if he wanted to leave me I wouldn't stop him because I have learned that holding onto someone with a vice grip doesn't work anyway. I choose to have enough self-confidence that someone else who come along who wanted to be there.
He got annoyed and accused me of not caring enough about him. I had to endure an hour long arguement about how I loved everyone else in the past more than him. *sigh* Some people just don't get it.
I was thinking about the economy this morning while driving to work, and all the horror stories I'm hearing about people loosing their jobs...they're pensions...etc...it made me so sad emotionally, and scared...so I remembered what I've had in the course of my life, and what I do have now...for instance, the little doggie I just adopted...he's old, hard of hearing and going blind...but...we are good for each other, and the other day, a service man came to the house, and said, that lil' dog is so happy! So, I thanked God that we met, and for all the wonderful things I've experienced in my lifetime and now have. So, whatever happens, I do know, I've been a very rich woman...
My son walked away from me three weeks ago.....gone! Puff!
Of course I have tried to email him to find out where he is and if he is ok! I guess I just have to let him go for now!
Great post!
I know where he is.....back home at his house. Still have not seen or heard from him! He owes me a huge apology if it takes 10 years! I know he will stay away but that is ok. He has caused me alot of stress in the past. Have to let it go.
