It's so hard to come to that decision. It's sad. It's a loss. But sometimes letting go is the healthiest thing you can do. Someone wise once said when asked how she coped with so many losses, "You have to let go of what's gone, because then you are free to accept the new."

As she said this, she started with closed hands, and opened them and held her arms out as she "let go", which then left her in a welcoming and open stance. It was very powerful, and I've never forgotten it.

I try to remember this, but I also grieve over losses and wish that I didn't have to go through it. I wish you didn't either.
