There comes a time when holding on hurts more than letting go. We cling to people, plans, and identities as if our worth depends on them. We convince ourselves that letting go means losing but sometimes, it’s the only way to find peace. Growth doesn’t always come from adding more to your life; sometimes it comes from releasing what no longer aligns with who you are becoming.

Letting go is not about forgetting or giving up it’s about freeing yourself from the weight of what you cannot change. It’s the quiet decision to stop carrying what’s already over. The mind resists this because it craves closure, control, and answers. But life rarely gives explanations for its endings. Some people leave without warning. Some dreams fade despite your effort. Some paths simply end. And no amount of overthinking can rewrite what was meant to pass.
