Erase and Release

It is so much easier to hold onto things

Then to let go

It is so much easier to say we let go

Then to have let go and it be gone

It is harder to actually let go

If we don't know why we are holding on

We really can't let go

Here is where you come in

You have to ask yourself why you can't release it, really

Start with Why

And you will find it is because inside you truly felt you were wronged

How do we clear a "wronged" feeling

You have to clear it with yourself first

And if it is possible with those you want to be clear with

You have to tell yourself, it made you feel vulnerable

That maybe you weren't respected, or felt loved, or cared for

And admit to yourself that you actually need those things

That none of us can live without those feelings

And if you can speak to the person,

You can say

Hey, I got to the bottom of why this or that bothered me so much

In the end, I just didn't feel cared for or about

Like I didn't matter

It wasn't your fault entirely,

My needs to feel cared for got in the way

And I just wanted you to know

It feels better to tell you

Thanks for your time

That alone clears the air

That alone clears your conscious

That alone not only releases what you were holding onto to

It erases it and it soon becomes a "remember when" story, maybe

If you can not release, erase, then you are still in it

you haven't come to terms with why

Speaking out what you believe is your truth

from your inner heart to the outside of you

Simply releases you of carrying it

That is the gift of truth

Once it is found

It never bothers you again
