                                               When you're hurt, stressed, depressed, & have things bottled up you tend to let things eat at you, it makes you feel trapped, like you're not even yourself, you're living in the moment of a dark cloud over your head but keep in mind, storms always pass! Letting go & freeing yourself is not something that's going to happen overnight, it's going to take time & there is no time limit, take as much time as you need! 
"To let go does not mean get rid of. To let go means to let be. When we let be with compassion, things come and go on their own." -Jack Kornfield 
"Sometimes holding on, does more damage than letting go."
Steps On How To Let Go & Free Yourself.
1. Know The Benefit's Of Letting Go.
 ASK YOURSELF!
I have not let go of things in the past because of .....
What will be the long-term consequences in my life if I don't let go?
What's making me hold on?
What's the advantages & disadvantages of holding on?
2. Forgive.
When someone does you wrong it will usually cause you pain for a while. You can either let it to continue to hurt you or you can choose to forgive. Don't focus on forgiving because it's something you're supposed to do, do it because you're changing as a person & want to let that hurt go & be free!
ASK YOURSELF!
Why should I forgive instead of holding a grudge?
What are steps in forgiving?
Why is it hard to forgive?
What happens if I do not forgive?
3. Accept.
When you accept what someone has done to you it makes it easier to let go! When you are still struggling in your mind against what has happened, you're feeding that memory with more energy. When you accept it, it becomes less powerful in your mind.
ASK YOURSELF!
Why am I having trouble with accepting what happened?
What emotions do I feel when I think about this situation?
4. Focus On What You Have Control On In Your Life (The Present).
By reliving the past over & over again you're not really changing anything unless you have a time machine, living in the present is a way to let go and be free of the past.
ASK YOURSELF!
What are the positives in my life?
What am I having trouble of letting go of?
How can I free my mind of the past?
5. LET GO!
Remember to always focus on the positive of situations, never hold on to negative thoughts or situations because when you hold on that's when it becomes harder to let go!
ASK YOURSELF!
Am I ready to let go?
List reasons of why I should let go?
Why am I Letting the negative take over?
"When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be. When I let go of what I have I receive what I need.
"Some of us think holding on makes us strong, but sometimes it is letting go."
