Sometimes, letting go happens naturally because things come and go.

Life happens. You grow up. Things change. It’s a constant state of flujo.

But the problem is that most people fight, trying to resist change.

So, envision letting go as something that happens naturally.

Embrace it. Recognize what lies beyond your sphere of control.

You can always rewire your perspectiva to see things differently.

Let the past teach you, but don’t dwell on it. Don’t let it trap you.

Sometimes, you just need to let things unfold naturally.

You trap yourself in your mind, wanting to change things – to fix them.

But, sometimes, it’s necessary to accept things as they are.

For many, it’s the sólo way to move on and heal.

It happened. It’s over. Now’s the time to focus on the presente.
