Let Go

Imagine this: a little child, learning to ride a bicycle, falls, and scrapes his (using "his" for sake of reference only) knee. He can either get up, clean out the wound, and go on - or he can sit on the ground, crying, bemoaning his injury.

Are you with me so far? Okay... then picture that same child, now a teenager, working up the nerve to ask a girl out on a date - and being turned down. He can swear off the opposite gender entirely, or he can spring back, and ask the same girl again or find someone new.

So far, so good? Excellent. Now imagine that your best friend, whom you have trusted for many years with your deepest secrets, has been telling those secrets all along. Will you hide in a hole in the ground and become a hermit, or will you push forward, and let go of the betrayal?

You see, I was once told that you can let life skewer you to the wall, or you can grab the bull by the horns. This is the question I want to ask you, as well as the point I am attempting to make: will you be skewered, or will you grab the bull by the horns, and move on? Will you be captive to misery - or will you let go?
