Ripping Off The Bandage - Ouch….

I am not good at letting go of what I hold dear. It breaks my very core to part ways with that what I deem beloved and meaningful in my life. This is especially true of those cherished ones that have been a part of my life for a considerable amount of time.

I have been faced with the daunting task of having to let go of you for quite some time now. Logic dictates that the sooner I do it, the better it is for us. Emotions whisper that I will never be able to replace you in my life – I will never be able to find another that would fit into my being as snugly and as flatteringly as you did. You have stood by me through thick and thin for quite some time now. I found warmth in you during some of the most harrowing times I have been through. I always looked forward to be enveloped by you, to be lost in your hold of me. Things between us have been tumbling downhill at an alarming speed in the recent past and it would be in both our best interests to part without causing each other permanent harm. I could not thank you enough for all that you have been to me and I hope you know that all I ever wanted was for you to be happy and at peace.

I know I should be tearing my object of affection away from me. Time to rip off the bandage so to speak – I am going to miss you so very much, my lovely jeans. I hope the Red Cross people gift you to someone who appreciates your worth!!!
