For the good of those you love the most…
Sometimes… many times…
we try to hold on too tightly to something we have,
or we think we have.
The tighter we hold on to it, the less possible for it to be taken away from us,
that’s what we think.
Along the way, things start to go pretty wrong.
We hold on even tighter, thinking, "Good things don’t come the easy way."
When the people around us say "let go!",
we think that they’re just being skeptical.
We fight. We push ourselves. We refuse to let go.
Then, at the end of the line we realise
how much damage we’ve caused to the very thing we hold onto,
just because we hold it too tightly.
So maybe…
Maybe sometimes we just need to give some space.
Don’t you agree that it takes as much courage to do so?
Don’t you agree that letting go doesn’t always mean giving up?
Maybe sometimes we just need to move backward a little,
to lay it down on the ground, let it breathe, let it grow…
Maybe sometimes we need to learn by seeing how God works,
when we put things wholly in his hands…
Just maybe.
Yeah,
we all know how much we’re scared of losing.
But, to hurt the one we love the most…
isn’t it much more unbearable?
Besides, you can’t lose what you never have, uh?
