"To let go isn’t to forget, not think about or ignore. It isn’t winning and it isn’t losing. Letting go isn’t blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts, and doesn’t leave emptiness, hurt or sadness. It’s not giving in or giving up. Letting go isn’t about loss and its not defeat. To let go is to cherish memories but to overcome and to move on. It is having an open mind and confidence in the future. Letting go is accepting. It is learning and experiencing and growing. To let go is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you cry, and made you grow. It’s all about what you have, all that you had, and all that you will have. Letting go is having the courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving. It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be the most potent remedy. To let go is to open a door, to clear a path and to set your self-free."
I read that on a "friend's" profile on facebook tonight and almost cried. It's incredibly true, but not as easy as it sounds. It took me forever to be able to let go....way too long.
On another note....I'm bored out of my mind!!!! Eric's gone for the weekend to work National Guard security at the Derby. So I'm here all by my lonesome. Thinking about driving up to Louisville tomorrow night to see him though. Maybe go clubbin. I haven't been since Thanksgiving weekend. It'll be nice since the only time I can dance is when he's there since he's good at it and it gives me some confidence. Kinda sucks that everyone I'm close to these days is underage and can't go :( But oh well, I'll have fun with Eric and Kenneth will probably go, which should be interesting to say the least considering the way he is. He'll probably find some girl and end up chillin with her. So I'm excited about going up there. Not only do I get to see my baby and break up the long weekend without him, but I get to go out. Has been absolutely forever since we've went out anywhere. I don't even get to leave the house to go to parties.....they always end up happening at our house....or Christine's! So I think I'm gonna dress up all cute and sexy and make him flip out since apparently I never dress up good enough for him. LOL...ok, so I'm gonna quit writing now since I'm rambling. Lata!
