Why is it important to let go?

We should let go of a person if he/she cause us nothing but pain. We should let go of hurtful memories but always hold on to the lessons life taught us. We let go of the excess baggage but embrace every learning we get... we embrace life.

Well why is it important for us to let go!!!That's an important and a nice question. By letting go,you are freeing yourself from the strings of attachment,love and all the connected memories.This in turn will help you to forget a person or a particular situation so that you can focus on the positive and better aspects of your life.And also so that you understand that when something doesn't goes your way no matter how hard you try then that is telling you that you deserve something more better and significant than the one you are holding on to.

I think what is meant is you have to c me to terms with losing a mate, Ihad to but I do n ot l et ogo of the good memories j ust the bad.I let go and let God take him to a better place where he probabley was joking with the angels and making everyone happ y. You let Go you l;et God and y ou move o n.

As I watched Angels Sing, my thoughts got words - You have no control on the bad ones (memories) but you definitely have a say about the good ones. Simply loved it. Now here is why I said that - Memories good or bad, I do not believing letting go of them. I always have memories written down either on pen and paper or even on computer files (though these are often trashed at a later date). But yes, I remember too many things for reasons - The bad memories are to be remembered just because you do not get into those situations the next time - there are plenty of them but here is one - a friend cheated me on money because I trusted him. So today, I do keep that thing in mind, and though I have had many friends, I never trusted them with money. Talk anything but money, and I am all fine. The good ones definitely are the ones to be treasured as long as they can be. They are some good motivators that can make wonders happen. Remember the first time your crush smiled at you? Nothing great about it, but the moment you think of that moment, you feel re-charged, rejuvenated. So why let go of such a moment?

When somebody has caused you a lot of pain , then it is best to let go of all the memories of that person even of the good ones . That way , it will be easier .

To let go means you relieve your mind from things that don't really matter in your life. Emotions can can hard to give way, but if you decide to move on with your life in positive manner, the ugly sides that remained stuck in your heart and mind will be eroded and clear way for a new and perfect chance to explore more. In most cases, you will realize why those memories were just a hindrance into a perfect example of real happiness.

I would rather say live and let live. There is a difference between the two.

You need to let go of something just to feel oneself worth. If you cannot let go, then you will live in misery. Thus you are not at peace to your weary over someone or something.

Let go because you need to move on and grow as a person. Life goes on.

Letting go of memories is good? Bad memories, maybe.

It may be hard to let go...but it will be the best. Whether memories or person
