Let Go …..detachments but not indifference. You detach yourself but still love like there is no one else. Being able to bask in the love and care but not attaching yourself to an extent that other’s absence makes you question your own existence.
Difficult .yes, impossible – no! Over the years I have learnt to detach myself from most of the things and people in my life. This in no way means that I don’t love them or stopped caring for them. They are still the most important people in my life and I would be first to stand by them in difficult times. It means that I have tried to chart down my own existence, taken ownership of my own choices and learnt to accept that neither mine nor their lives revolve around one another. The relationship becomes an evolving one …… and continual changing one ….. synchronized to the changing beings. The stagnation that comes with attachment is what brings down any relationship.
Detachment doesn’t mean you stop caring. Actually it is going higher on the scale of caring. You stop caring just because you need that person, instead you start caring because you genuinely respect the person’s presence in your life and also respect that each one of us is individual with our own destinies and life paths. Respecting that we all are in each other’s paths because there was a soul agreement and that beyond that we all have our own journeys to complete and goals to accomplish.
