"KNOWING WHEN TO LET GO"
by Becky Hemsley
by Becky Hemsley
There will be some people in life who just won’t be able to love you the way you need them to.
The way you love them.
There will be some people in life who won’t treat you the way you deserve to be treated.
The way you treat them.
Sometimes we cling on to these people for far longer than we should. Like a tree clinging desperately to its leaves, trying not to let them fall.
But they will fall.
Eventually.
And the tree shouldn’t blame itself.
Because the loss - whilst great - is necessary. The tree needs to lose its leaves so it can rediscover its roots and ready itself for a fresh start.
You can’t keep painting autumn leaves green and expecting them to stay.
Deep down they are always destined to fall.
The key is knowing when to let go.
