    Oh dear Dee. You have gone and done it. I’m crying. This is so powerful. I’m actually crying. Tears streaming down my face. Not in a sad way…or even a glad way. Might be your aura…your gentleness.. your kindness…the words. I’ve such a hard time letting go. I’ve let go of a lot of traumatic memory moments. Yet….a song, a word, a phrase, something I’m reading or watching in a nature video….will trigger something in me, and memories come flooding back at lightening speed. For a few moments…I’m aware of this happening and I realize I can not change what’s occurred or how many loved ones have left (life is sometimes so short)…and I can’t change the fact that many family members I’ve helped financially, emotionally, physically have long kind of forgotten about me. I’ll never stop caring… yet I feel broken. So tired. So sad that my life didn’t turn out to be like the ‘Walton’s’ (a tv show I always watched when I was young). Silly tv shows and fairy tales….all with happy endings.
    I’ve had several joyous moments….but I seem to have had more very painful, traumatic moments. Never thought I’d really live this long with so much heart disease on both sides of family. Especially after dealing with several people who have had severe mental illness issues. And me…usually not thinking rationally: ‘oh I can save this person, this dog, this cat, this opossum, my child, my grandchild, etc…), not aware, at that time, that I could not really save anyone. Being so empathetic..it stinks, Dee. But I’ve done what I thought I had to do at the time. As far back as I can remember.
    Letting go. Such lovely words. Ahhhhh….to just let go.
    Thank you so much for sharing this. I shall check the link out and read more. Beautiful words of wisdom. I know one thing. I’m not afraid of dying. I’m headed for exit ramp. I am very tired. And tho I don’t know what comes next…doesn’t matter. I’ve told my daughter. If I get too ill to care for myself…she promises to not hook me up to any machines to keep me breathing. Then…and only then…perhaps I will truly let go..like a leaf does when autumn comes and the wind blows them off the trees…. and they cover my little front yard with so many pretty colors. I hope so anyway. Thank you again, Dee. I’m done crying. The words just overwhelmed me for some reason. Hugs to you and Mishka. ❤️💞🌈🌾🍃🌱🪻🪴🌸🪷💐🦚🍁🍁🍁🍁🍂🍂🍂

    If my head gets in the way of letting go, I will use my imagination & either picture a rope or a bungy-cord... If I want to truly let go, I picture cutting the bungy-cord away (from a part of my body) & letting the energy bounce back to the recipient or where it came from. If it's something I still have to be "attached to" (a family member as example), I picture the rope with a knot & it magically unravels & the connection is "straight" again. Puts me back in my heart every time. 💛 💫 🌟 🫶

    I lived the life of letting go, I did it when I was young. My whole life has been about letting go, because it was too painful to not. I read when I was young this poetry wisdom...If you love someone set them free, if they come back, then they are yours, and if they don't come back they were never yours to begin with. Letting go, is about loss, sometimes its about control, mine was about because no one loved me at all, I was born into this world and even though I had a family, I had to let them go and leave. I was born into a religion, then I had to let that go. I come to the end there was nothing left to let go, so then I had to learn to hold on so I did, now its let go again and....that and is important...Let go and love, Let go and allow, Let go and grieve, let go and get angry, let go and be peaceful, let go and be silent, let go and write, let go and breathe, let go and live, let go and be alone, one of the most difficult losses in my life, was the loss of my family, and not being able to be with them.....I let go and left, because I can not be without love, and peace. Now I prepare for letting go and accepting that I will die alone, there is a possibility, a reality maybe, to face the possibility of dying alone. Is it really that bad we die alone. Or that people die alone and its ages before they are found. I can't tell you how upsetting that has been to me. So that was let go and now its ok. I have a son, its a possibility that he will die alone too, because he came with me when he was younger, also learnt how to let go, he is better at it than I am. Now he prefers to be alone. I learnt to love when no one loved me back, and I learnt and found the greatest love of all, not love of self, or being selfish, I discovered I never was without love at all, nor wihout peace always with me, always free. I write because I love to write, whether people like reading my writing, I love my writing, but not enough to hold on. Let go and...... I see rainbows all over our land. Beautiful carpet of gold, reds, blues, greens, purple, silver, diamonds as far a the eye can see...I let go, because I can see rainbows, because I live rainbows...I let go and I got rainbows.

    Hi Dee, I'm enjoying your thoughtfullness. Thankyou for taking the time to share with us. When I was in my 30's I had to let go of my relationship with my mother and I went through everything the rev Rose said she didn't do, which actually made it harder- letting the self doubt rule. Nowadays I find that I am able to just let go, thankfully but I do still pray for people I let go so my heart stays in a good place, which for me is important. As for the emotions I believe it was Ralph Waldo Emerson who said that emotions are like a string of beads! I think to feel them fully but to then let them pass through you is the key. Take care x

    Hi, not seen your videos before, so I was listening and trying to fathom what this was about. You asked the question about letting go, Being a Christian, I’m a 71 year old widow, my answer is I give everything to Jesus. It’s not just about letting things go in the natural, doing things in our own strength. My belief is only Jesus can deal with our stuff, and by having a close relationship and friendship with Him we can be truly free.

    It’s really hard to let go when the thing (whatever/whoever this thing is) when it’s still present/part of your life in some way. If you have no control over who is coming in and out of your life, whether or not you be a child, or are disabled in some way, letting go becomes more complex.
    Something/someone unhealthy that/who is preventing you from moving forward and living a peaceful life as well as causing pain, could also be triggering past pains that you might have put effort into moving away from.
    I’m autistic and in the face of one traumatic event to the next have been at the mercy of those around me, unable to gain/regain enough focus, fortification, self confidence, energy, self awareness etc to escape and start healing.
    Autistic people need more time than the average person to process and to heal and not being in control of who, or what comes into your life results in an echo chamber of thoughts/continuous catastrophising . We can sometimes go into years long shutdowns after traumatic events, so imagine what it’s like never being able to escape trauma?
    In the past I’ve had what many might call a “spiritual awakening” and put all the light I had dug around in the darkness for into the efforts of making connections with a sister who I have a very strained relationship with. I saw her as a child and loved her as such. This worked for a while, but she took and took, meanwhile my lights started dimming again and wasn’t looking after myself. Even after I went into shut down, I still gave my time to her, like a robot, at the expense of other family members who are much more kind to me.
    On a side note, there are levels to spiritual awareness, someone, like me, who is quite young on her journey, needs to use the light wisely. Just giving and giving after going through a trauma you haven’t fully healed from is going to result in burnout and you won’t grow healthily.
    There’s more to this story, but have reached my limit for today, so will stop shortly.
    I will say this though, I’m hopefully going to have my own home soon. There is no spite towards my sister, only a feeling of sadness, because I can see why she is the way she is. She is still bound to a childhood trauma we went through. The man she married as a teenager was a way of escaping. He didn’t value her then and doesn’t now. He rates her based on her looks and success. She struggles with arrogance and is not very kind as a result. She only sees the light on the occasion he’s been really nasty and then will go back to protecting her husband’s name at any cost. She became so many parts of him, as she desperately sought his approval. She never spends enough time away from him to truly see any different. I will have to let her go. The process has already started. I just hope, from afar, she can make self discoveries that will lead us to being one day healing together and being there for each other.

    Very good follow up. I am reading Falling Upward by Richard Rohr. He explained how there are two different halves of our lives. . . . let them and letting go is definitely characteristic of the 2nd half. The first half is where those who push against us are coming from and it is totally normal and natural for them to do so. This helps me immensely to LET THEM and LET GO. I no longer take it so personal and realize I am maturing in a healthy way. I highly recommend his book.

    Thank you so much for sharing "Letting Go," by the Reverend Rose. Her message was so beautifully written, and
    I loved hearing you read it. Learning this art of "Letting go" is a powerful life skill to learn. Practicing this will help me to build resilience, and become more balanced in my all-over-the-place feelings in life.
    So, when hurtful, shitty things happen, I will quietly remind myself to practice what you brought to my attenetion.
    "Let them," and "Letting go" You inspire me! Take good care of yourself:) You are loved.

    Dear Dee. This is a topic which affects me also and I guess many others. Letting Go is an excercise that is treated in the ancient teachings of wisdom such as Zen or the old sanskrit books. Personally I think that letting go is a life task for me. I try and sometimes I can do it with ease and sometimes not - but as for many other important things it is relevant to keep on going. Thanks for sharing and Greetings from Germany. Satoshi

    Letting go is when you are fully & freely able to live without apology or explanation. I refuse to apologize to people for who I am. It’s being self actualitied like Maslow talked about.

    I let go of my sister after an argument seven years ago and it still feels right. She didn‘t fight for me nor did our parents try to mediate. It hurt that she did not care for me, but I‘m better off know, because she wanted me to help her all the time.
    Unfortunately I have a even worse situation with my mother. I have to help them all the time, cut their hair, nail care, run errands, fix the house and garden. What bothers me is that my sister and brother are not helping at all and my parents excuse them. I feel for a long time this is not ok and I have to let them go. It‘s hard.

    Excellent!
    I let go
    Or have I?
    But there have been countless "letting goes"
    Which actually really indicates not Really letting go
    The last one was the year mark of my No Contact where I've decided to quit ruminating, or analyzing or battling the situation in my head, or secretly hoping or longing for the negative person.
    And I think even when U let go, for most of us it's still there. It's not a complete cleansing of the person, it lingers still...
    So this was great
    I hope to really be Free from any invisible yet debilitating shackles that keep me chained to a painful past which is even present

    Hello, this is my first comment under your videos, which I keep watching for a while now. And I want to say: Thank you! This video really touched me the most! Because I'm not goot at letting go. I needed to grow a lot to be where I am now. I moved from a very dark mental place to a place that is much brighter, because I found things to do that I love and overcame fears to fulfill these dreams, but I'm not quite where I want to be yet, mentally. One of the reasons for that is because I just can't let go. Very often my head is turning from the same thoughts, anxieties or self-doubt. Letting go is one of my flaws and this poem read by your calm voice is exactly what I needed today! In my Yoga course, the instructor always told us to imagine our thoughts as clouds that are there but just passing by. I feel like this video was a guide to help me to remember that! I'm really happy that I found your UA-cam channel. The video "Let them" inspired me to move on from some things, too. I think, self-reflection is one of the most important things in life and you are an amazing guide for that! Thank you, dear Dee, and many greetings from Luxembourg!

    There are Lightworkers and there are Wayshowers, I'm somewhere in the middle I think. Then there are Starseeds... it's a rabbit hole finding our origins and missions! The poem was lovely, and like you I find it hard to let go of some things, easy to let go of others. Recently I've been trying my best to let go of expectations. That is a tough one, especially when you are reciprocal by nature. I tend to ruminate too much, my ego mind keeps me awake after the bathroom visit at 3am! Letting go is healthy for us, we have to let go of what isn't working, and what doesn't serve us any longer in order for the good the Universe has planned for us to enter in. Very hard when there's emotion attached. 😘

When I find I’m struggling with making a choice/decision it is because the timing is not yet right or the decision is not yet a “perfect fit.” You know it when not to follow through would simply be unthinkable.

    How wonderful and powerful human emotions are! People fear letting others go because they believe they will be left alone, or perhaps that is how I felt. I have met many people after the person I loved, but nothing could make me forget that person, even though it happened many years ago. The poem perfectly expresses what I have experienced because, overnight, I found myself alone, searching for her like a small bird that has yet to learn how to fly. Love is a wonderful thing, but it makes us suffer. Perhaps this pain is our thrill in life.

    I think most of us tries to justify letting go, full of guilt and shame, we try to forgive ourselves, we try to forgive others, because the end game is letting go, we are hoping that if we forgive ourselves enough of our trespassings, we would reach the pinnacle where there is nothing more to forgive and we can finally let go. For many of us, it may take a life time.
    Or maybe...
    We can just...let...go...
