Just Let Go

Just Let Go

Are you paddling upstream?

Hanging on to belief systems that no longer serve us or worse that actually are a disadvantage to us can cause great pain and suffering in our lives. I love the example of “Paddling a canoe upstream”. We often will turn our canoe upstream in a strong current and paddle as hard as we can for a long as we can in an effort to maintain our belief system that life has to be difficult and we must work hard to achieve anything we want. We are also struck by the fact that most people we know are going the same way so we assume that is the direction we are supposed to take.

Some become aware that if we “Just Let Go” of our incorrect beliefs and allow our canoe to turn down stream and follow the flow of the current we begin to see life from a completely different perspective and realize that we make our lives far too difficult.

Consider the beliefs that form the basis for your life and perhaps you can “Just Let Go”.

Love Papa
