          Look around you and you will see examples of letting go.  It repeats in all nature, as signs for you to know.  Releasing that which is not necessary, for a happy life, within, will bring you peace when all the world appears to be a din, unsettled with chaos.  And there, in the midst, you stand, free of worry, confident with experience of that which has been.  Do not demand the stream of thought, which comes to you, dry up and whither.  Pay attention, as you would to a passing parade, and let it go from you.  Make notice of that which bears the lesson, and pick it, as you would a pearl, to mark the page with experience, turning that which was old and tattered, into something of value, more precious than gold.  Do not be burdened with the past, be lifted-up in the precious story told, by seeing, forgiving, blessing, and releasing, and letting go.

And The Holy Spirit says:

          There is always the temptation to hold onto something of the past, even when it is troubling, or sad.  But to grow one must be open to the new seed, which will settle in the soil of the garden, sprout, and blossom, into the new.
