Letting go is not weakness. It is courage in disguise. I used to believe holding on showed commitment, love, and strength. But over time, I realized that sometimes the most loving thing you can do—for yourself and others—is to release what no longer grows with you.
The process of letting go feels like loss, but it is actually liberation. When you let go, you make room for truth to surface. The friendships that faded, the dreams that shifted, the plans that failed—they all taught me what wasn’t mine to carry. Each goodbye left behind a lighter version of me.
The beauty of surrender is not in giving up, but in giving in—to the rhythm of life itself. The river doesn’t fight its flow; it trusts it. So should we. Because sometimes, life doesn’t take things from us—it clears our hands for better things to come.
