Think through the unchallenged mental conditioning you have been subject to when you unconsciously hold on to old hurts, past events or even people who no longer belong in your current reality or experience. What are you holding on to exactly? A faint memory? A poor copy of what was? A self-righteous resentment towards things,people,places etc to remind you constantly of your victim state? Or are they fleeting feelings and emotions which pretend to make you feel superior, loved and safe?
But you have to ask yourself, "Why am I then not feeling at peace? Why am I not feeling the overwhelming sense of completeness that accompanies every authentic thought?
Because only YOU know what your mind has chosen to ignore. The truth. The truth of the present moment. That this pristine present moment is all that you ever really need to feel safe, secure, loved and whole. Your higher self knows this sacred truth and reminds you each time you are aware of your negative emotional state and emotions..its like a little flag which points to you that you are not in sync with the highest truth of your existence. The past has no power over YOU.
Allowing yourself the lightness of experience that comes from fully engaging with your present reality brings a freshness of perspective which did not exist before. A sense of "All is Well" and that everything is unfolding at the perfect time for the perfect reasons.
So go on, let go. Let go. After all it is only a thought. A perceptual error which has to be managed better by YOU.Choose your birthright to be free of all mental limitations and choose Forgiveness, Compassion and Love again. Like you did when you first became aware of your SELF.
