Challenges & Obstacles

Letting go is so hard. Emotionally its one of the biggest obstacles. You have to face
the fact that things that you once thought was so simple are now just smoke and mirrors. The most comfortable feeling is now the most foreign and even the most heartfelt confessions are now the most disgusting things you ever heard. Right now, that feeling is all too real. I have to let go. Let go of the off and on obstacle. Let go of the confusion and the fear of another. I have to let go because of the hurt that comes with it. If you dont let go..the situation becomes a bolder that sits on your shoulders, mind, heart, and body. Could I let that be? Could I weather that storm like so many? I don't think I can. Nothing should be this. Nothing should be a obstacle or a challenge. It should be a hurdle. But, this 'letting go', this is something that is a mountain. Everything you see reminds you of that obstacle. Music, tv, movies, EVERYTHING! Memories won't fade and neither will the girlfriend. Mind playing tricks when you alone and you hear the rain hit the window at night. Remembering when those nights became yall nights. Remembering when the happy moments were really that.

Could you let go of something you knew was right for you but that thing didn't? Could you walk away from something that made you happy but at the same time made you cringe?

How about reaching a new chapter in your life? Your graduating! You have a new job to get! Your lease is up soon! You have to move to a new place! You go back down memory lane with a old flame! Can it work this time? Do you let it go?

All the challenges & obstacles..one thing is clear. Its life and decisions are made every day. Choose wisely.
