Let Her Go.

This song has been on my mind. Nor only because it's so beautiful but also because it reminds me of some things. It fits with where I am at right now. If you listen to the song and don't interpret it too literally the 'her' in the song can stand for so many things. And I feel like letting go. Not of my lover but of 'her', an image of my life I painted inside my head. The way I once thought it would, the friends I would have, where I would be. Because it never is the way you imagined your life would be. But it's not a bad thing. Life wouldn't be life if we could predict its every move. It's different than the image you once had, but the road life actually takes you on is so much more interesting than that image you had, even though letting go of that image can be hard and can make you sad. If you look straight you see that letting go of it can set you free. Letting go feels as a relieve. Not to pine anymore about a friendship that didn't work out or a dream you didn't accomplish. There is more than that, much more. Thing you will not see comping, people you never thought you'd love that much, dreams you never knew you'd have, room of new things in your heart instead of old things that didn't deserve the room anymore. Letting go is finding freedom again and making space for everything that is outside the frame you put around the picture in your head. One day reality will surprise you and you will realize life is much better than that image ever could have predicted.
