12 STEPS To Letting Go

Wed, 24 Apr 2013 00:35:00 -0400

Step 1: Forgive yourself for fucking up, forgive yourself for the mistakes you made and the broken bones. You cannot change the past.

Step 2: Do everything you always said you would. Spit in the face of what scares you, make your lies into truth, stop lying, get out there, get hurt, tell the world to fuck off.

Step 3: Throw away the past. Pictures, souveneirs, sex tapes, throw it all away and start fresh. Try not to still be reminded by everything and everyone else you see.

Step 4: Travel. Save up your money and go as far away as you can. Wake up in New Orleans, fall asleep in Paris, blackout in the back alleys of Montreal, wipe the past from your mind as you experience everything new for the first time. Keep the ghost at bay. Keep the disease from killing you.

Step 5: Accept that there’s nothing you can do about your dreams. Accept that you will wake up thinking about the past, the images of your dreams still burned into your eyes no matter where you run to.

Step 6: Forgive yourself for your dreams. Forgive yourself for everything.

Step 7: Put the bottle down. She’s too good a swimmer for you to drown her in vodka.

Step 8: You don’t love her anymore, you don’t care, she means nothing.

Step 9: You barely remember her name, she means nothing.

Step 10: Fuck until you’re numb, she means nothing. You are stronger for your past, you are better than your ghosts. You are better than your disease. She means nothing.

Step 11: Hope to God you never see her again.

Step 12: See her again and realize that half of you is still in love. That half of you is tearing apart, that half of you refuses to let go. Cut yourself in two, and smother the screaming half of your soul. Let go. Force yourself to let go, no matter how much it hurts. You are not defined by her ghost, you are not your disease, you are letting go. No matter how much it hurts, No matter how much you still love her. Accept that you are not your disease, that OCD can kiss your ass, kiss your ass, kiss your ass. Take your medication, forget her face and let go. Accept that half of you will always be in love. Accept that for a little while longer she will still mean everything.

Go back to step 1. And try again.

““It is good to love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is well done.””

- Vincent van Gogh (via penseesduchoeur)

Words to live by, and cut your ear off to.

"Do not settle for less than exactly what you want. Your heart’s desires are there for a reason...."

“Do not settle for less than exactly what you want. Your heart’s desires are there for a reason. Chase them. Pursue them relentlessly. Do not lose sight of your goals. They are your very reason for being.”

- Franki Durbin (via penseesduchoeur)
