In the journey of life, there are so many things things involved. I want to specially for this kind of topic for this edition. It's been an awesome time writing and enjoying other authors'perspectives on issues like this.
For the matter of discussion in this edition is critical and constitutes what is practiced in the world today. The topic says letting go. There are lots of things that we have let go in the course of this life most at times through the kind of friends one keeps. There are many reasons why we let go of people in our lives especially when they want to draw us back or get us stuck. Every one's desire is to move higher to a better place. In an event where someone doesn't want to see your advancement, it's better to end the relationship or friendship so that everyone moves on.
I used to say that purpose or vision discovery is a personal thing. This implies that every individual has a deposit of potential that God has given which is unique, well designed and structured for such individuals to be fulfilled. In achieving this one must be deliberate and intentional about it if not there are distractions that could easily ensnare one to take the wrong step. I strongly believed that distractions could emanate from any angle but in this case we are looking at family. If it's the family members that are drawing one backwards or get one stuck, one can decide to let them go if you can't manage their indifference.
I have seen family people that don't seem to look at things in the same perspective with you rather, they would like you to tilt towards their direction but in the end it won't result in something good. One of my brothers had the conviction to go to the seminary to study theology and become a pastor in a particular denomination. When one of our uncles heard this developed resistance to my brother's decision saying that he should go and study law or any other best sort after course than just mere theology. Hmmm these were two different thoughts and interests, the big question now is letting go of his passion and desire to cleave to my uncle or standing tenacious on his own personal decision. This brother decided to let go of my uncle's suggestion and went to buy a form and enroll for his studies in theology. It's important to sometimes let go of the family when it comes to critical time for decision making.
There are some people that couldn't let go of the will of their family rather than stand by it and today they are suffering from the aftermath of such a decision. A lady married a man because her mother insisted that this is the right person. She never wanted to look down on her. Boom she went and got married, after a while the crisis set in and she is planning for divorce.
There are some family members that don't mean good for somebody rather there selfish interest or any gain these kind of people one can easily let them go. We have different kind of family ties. Why would I keep a family member that doesn't want to see my advancement? There are other family members that are good and always seek after the progress of one. In letting people go, one should define himself and have reasons why you are letting go.
Let there be balance.
Thanks.

Hmmm! This is terrible for a lady to get married just because her mother said so and she didn't allow God to take charge.
It's well with her. I pray she can sit down and put her marriage in order and not runs away.
Thanks alot
Amen
Sometimes, peace and progress come from letting go, even if it’s family, holding on to those who don’t align with your vision can drain your growth so balance and wisdom truly matter.
