I hope you are doing well and enjoying the first day of the week. The weather is cool, humid and cloudy after rain in the morning. I'm holding warm cup of tea and writing. This blog is my submission to Hive Learners Weekly Featured Content topic "Letting Go" week 186 and episode 01.
"Letting Go" doesn't mean cutting of fake friends and walking away from bad relationship. But something, the hardest decision is to let go the people who live under same roof. I experience learn letting go in my life deeply. Letting go others expectations as well as my personal desires made me realize true freedom and peace in life.

I'm an emotional gentleman. My family decision are valuable for me. But I had to face a time when I was forced to choose between my emotions and my family’s decisions. I felt as their choices were holding me back from completing my love story :)
I was in Intermediate college when I fell in love with topper student of the class. She was kind, pretty and brilliant. I never confess my feelings to her but my friends knew about it well. She lives next to my street that's why our families know each other slightly. I courageously told my parents that I wanted to marry her. My parents were surprised as they weren't expecting this for me. My mother has chosen someone else for me.(But I am not actually engaged or committed yet.) They weren't ready to listen to me at first. I went to my aunt's place so my family accept my decision. I didn't concentrate to my health and studies. I remembered I started smoking to release stress I had those day. My love made me stubborn. Finally, my parents agreed visit her house.
I was happy and grateful. I really lacks words to express that feelings. When my parents visited their home they knew that left me heartbroken.
She was already nikahfied.
It was painful and I wasn't ready to gave up on my emotions.

I was ashamed and I didn't faced my family for days. I can't blame anyone for my failed love. I felt guilty for not accept my parents' decision. I slowly came back to life and understood that my parents weren't trying to control my life. They wanted me to stay happy and protect me from pain.

The one sided love emotions and heartbrreak left me with depression and guilt. But it's said that :
Time is the best healer.
It's actually true. I started focusing on my studies and my goals. I learned that love isn’t always about possession and sometimes it’s about acceptance. Accepting that not everything we wish for is meant to be ours.
Neither I moved on and engaged in any relationship nor I am broken inside. I'm healing by letting go the emotions for the person who wasn't mine. It's not her fault at all.
That's how letting go impacted my life and help me to heal, grow and be mature.
Do you prefer to let go people or things,?
OR
Are you you Stubborn?
