To let go...
doesn't mean you stop caring, it means you can't fix someone else,
is not to punish but to allow learning from natural consequences,

is not to admit defeat or powerlessness, but to realize the outcome,
is not in my hands,
is to spend time filling my own needs and plugging the drainholes created by others' unmet... needs,
is not to judge, but to seek understanding and acceptance,
is to move from denial to acceptance; from feeling defensive to reflective,
is to stop nagging, arguing and scolding,
is to stop focussing on that which you wish would change, but which is out of your control
is to focus your thoughts on that which you can control: your own mind and attitude,
is to stop wanting things to be different and to start making them different,
is not to regret what was or wasn't, or what might have been, it is to learn, grow and prepare for the future,
is to invest in yourself; to invest time and mental energy on your own mental and emotional health,
is to pursue your own goals, dreams and plans while leaving all doors open to the future possibilities
