The mere mention of the word 'lose' brings a flash of unpleasant experience. Nervousness, fear, panic and to a great extent uncertainty. Does it need to be associated with such negative emotions?
People tend to want to stay is an area they are comfortable with and this ultimately will lead to their demise. Having something and thinking it will remain is like eating your cheese without finding ways to replenish it and hoping it will still be there when you wake up the next morning.
Gaining and losing something is a way of life. How do we know that there is something better out there if we do not let go of what we have and grab something new. There are always two sides of a coin. We need to learn to look at both sides of things. How can anything be good or bad if there is no comparison?
Have you ever seen a juggling act in a circus? The juggler has a minimum three balls in the air and yet he has only two hands. How does he manage to keep all those balls in the air? He only holds any one ball for a short period of time before letting go and grabbing the next ball. There are times when we do not let go and get stuck in a situation. There are always greener pastures out there, why get stuck in a rut? Let go and enjoy the new found freedom. We deserve more in life. What we have now may not be the best when where are something better out there.
