Because I LOVED U, I can let you go
God has an amazing way of showing glimpse of possibilities..
In The Alchemist they’re called Omens..but, I realized just recently how the same
principles and expectations apply in every facet of my life. When it comes to
career, love, friendship.. For me there is NO risk too great! I love like I’ve
never been hurt, I work like the boss is looking over my shoulder.. I give 100%
of myself and trust that If it’s not reciprocated, than it wasn’t gods last
intention for me.. than I figure out the lesson and I move on..I just feel like
“risk are worth it”, simple as that…
To draw a parallel for you guys I’ll use love and career
I had a career where I was GOOD.. no damn it, I was GREAT..
I mean I surprised myself with some of the things I came up with, that managed
to be a huge success. But, there was a time when that relationship was SUPPOSE
to end… and I knew I had over stayed my welcome. But, NO ONE else could
understand why I would leave or allow things to end as they did or why I had such
a cool understanding of something that made no sense to anyone else etc…
On the contrary at one time I also had a
10 year
relationship that prob was suppose to be a few year relationship, lol.. We had
several experiences, love, hurt, disrespect, neglect, blame, laughter, tears, memories
etc. etc. but what we didn’t have was the very same thing that has helped me in every facet of my life
The ability to say
”I gave THIS MAN,
THIS JOB, THE PLACE, THIS FRIENDSHIP the very best of me. “
When you KNOW you’ve given your best to a situation there is
an inner peace that allows you to walk away and feel comfortable seeking
something different. This is not to say you didn’t do things wrong while you
were there.. but this is to say.. If you know you gave YOUR BEST its much
easier to accept that it wasn’t meant to be forever. You can love someone, hurt
them unintentionally and still manage to love them past the pain and have a
beautiful relationship.. but what you can’t do is burden yourself or allow
yourself to be burden with the pain that once was. All anyone can ask is that
you do your best. You won’t always make the rite decisions but you will more than likely learn
more from the missteps than you did from the intended ones.
I know now that our love relationship lasted so very long because
we didn’t know how to give our all.. therefore neither one of us wanted to be “the
first to say goodbye” <-- Dag, that’s a good song, lol
I’ve been told by some "ex's" that I give up to quickly, and
my response has been.. You can’t cry longer than 3 days for anything.. If Jesus rose
from the dead in 3days you can get over ANYTHING life throws at you.. It’s not
some hard and fast 72hour deadline it’s more of the principle.. If you gave
your all, you know you had no ill intentions, you know you didn’t treat anyone
or any situation with less respect than you require.. you can accept the fact
that maybe God is pushing you into new territory.
When I think about how long people stay at jobs or in
relationships because they don’t truly believe there is anyone or anything else that’s better and
guaranteed to them, It drives me crazy.. God wants us to live fulfilled and
happy lives, you can not conceive the love he has in store for you. My god when
I think about the Love I’ve known since, I can’t believe how much I would have
missed out on had I stayed and settled.
No sugar: Be the
best friend you know how to be, Be the best lover you can possibly imagine, Be
the best employee they’ve ever had.. It’s not about if they treat you how you
deserve to be treated.. because in the end you just want to be able to LET GO
and walk away w/out bitterness, questions, doubts and fears.. and if you give
the best of you you’ll have the closure necessary when it’s time to move on.
You won’t need him to say sorry or the job to offer you a raise, you will be
sufficient in yourself.
Love like you’ve never been hurt, Work like there are no
short cuts and you’ll never have any regrets. Life gets better and better with
every chance you take. NEVER SETTLE!
