Let Go!

Let Go!

A Poem by Bob B

If your life is full of stress,

And you feel you’re being tossed to and fro,

Two little words might help you;

Those two little words are LET GO.

 

If the world is going crazy,

And wherever you look there is woe,

Though you’d like to fix the world’s problems,

At some point you have to LET GO.

 

Sometimes daily pressures

Can make you a mean so-and-so.

Release the steam from your cooker

With a good attempt to LET GO.

 

If you’re micromanaging life

And control is your M.O.,

You might increase your longevity

If you can learn to LET GO.

 

If your words come back to bite you

And you end up eating crow,

There are worse things that can happen;

Just say to yourself, “LET GO!”

 

By always approaching life

With expectations in tow,

You’re bound to be disappointed;

Try to stay calm and LET GO.

 

If you’re always in high gear

And haven’t learned to go slow,

Avoid wear and tear on your engine;

To do so you’ve got to LET GO.

 

If you’re still having some trouble

Getting ALL of your ducks in a row,

Delayed gratification

Will happen if you can LET GO.

 

You wake up and go to the kitchen,

And what? there’s no morning joe!

Stay calm and take a few breaths;

You’ll manage if you can LET GO.

 

Though easier said than done--

Ask sages, for they ought to know--

Your life changes forever

Once you learn how to LET GO.

 

If you’re up the creek with no paddle

And you have to go with the flow,

Relax and enjoy the adventure,

Repeating the mantra: LET GO!

I like this, I have to remind myself several times to let go of the things I cannot change, it is a lot better to be able to let go because it helps you be in a better mood and not angry or become depressed. Some days it is easy to let go and other days it can be hard, but it is a nice thing to keep practicing and becoming better at for our own well being.

Great Job
