The Letting Go
Letting go comes in many forms.
Letting go of relationships, old patterns, careers, beliefs, and even versions of ourselves that no longer fit who we are becoming.
For me, I am navigating the transition of letting go of my children.
Not letting go of them completely, because they were never mine to own, are their own souls, their own journeys, and simply one of the greatest gifts I have been blessed to nurture.
It’s the letting go of being needed in the way they once needed me.
The days that were filled with laughter, tears, noise, chaos, endless questions, and busy little feet suddenly become quieter, the house softens & stillness arrives.
And honestly , there can be a sadness in that, however alongside it sits something beautiful.
A deep pride in watching them spread their wings and learn to fly under their own power, yet knowing that while they may need me differently now, they will always need me for a reassuring voice, a safe place, & a steady presence.
A mother’s love never leaves, it simply changes shape.
At times it feels unfamiliar & lonely, and at times I wonder who I am without the constant role of being needed.
But this too is part of life.
Nature holds me through the transition, through the uncertainty, through the becoming.
She whispers her wisdom gently through the changing seasons, reminding me that nothing stays the same, that all of life moves in cycles. That growth often asks us to release before we can receive.
So I am embracing this chapter.
Riding the waves, trusting in the unfolding., whilst smiling at the role I have been gifted to play.
And learning that sometimes letting go isn’t an ending at all…… it’s simply love taking on a new form. 🦋🦋
