Let go..

Why is it that when your hand is holding a pencil, and your brain says to let go, your hand does? It’s because the brain has made a command and the body has to listen. That’s the brains job and that’s the body’s job. So who’s job is it to tell the brain what to do and for the brain to listen? Who’s job is it to tell the brain to let go and for the brain to listen? When has your brain ever actually listened to your commands? When you’ve told yourself to stop crying, did you? When you’ve told yourself to just do it, did you? Did your brain actually listen. If so, congratulations you are the 1% of the human population that was designed to give the other 99% hope. Hope that they too might actually be in control of their mind. But then people say that it takes time. It’s a daily mission with consistent and regular commands.

I tell my brain to let go. Daily.

I tell my brain to let go and be happy. Daily.

I tell my brain to let go, be happy and forget the pain from another time. Daily.

Daily. Daily I do the same exercises. Then after awhile, I give up. Then I’m told to not give up and that time will fix all wounds. Again. I just want to know though, how long do I have to allow? How much time will it take? Because I’ve been waiting along time for this to ease, for those longing pains to decrease. All that has happened, is that I have more distractions than I did before to keep me from thinking about it every second of every day. Is that what people mean when they say “give it time”. Do they mean you’ll just get distracted long enough to get through the day? They mustn’t mean that my brain will actually start listening to the consistent background hum of myself chanting over and over

“Let go..”
