People come in and out of our lives constantly. Some are blessings, some are lessons. The latter come to teach us things about ourselves. They help us dig deep and heal old wounds that we’ve buried for years. Some people stay and some leave. However, some of the ones who leave us, leave a mark. A deep mark. A cord if you will. For whatever reason, we just can’t seem to let go of those people. We think about them constantly, we may even cry over them, and are borderline addicted to them. This is a cord of attachment. That person, or for that matter, that place or that thing has left such a tremendous impact on our lives and we just can’t let go. It doesn’t matter if this person was toxic or not, the cord is rooted firmly and we’re completely attached. Today it is time to consciously and intentionally begin to let go of attachments to people, but also to your beliefs, habits, and anything that you know that you do not want in your life but haven't been able to detach from. Attachment is the emotional dependence we put on things, or people, with some degree of our survival interwoven into the precious person or thing we have attached to. You may not even understand why you remain attached so make some quiet time for yourself to delve deeper so that you can realize that only you can bring yourself happiness, despite your current belief that you need that person, place, thing to feel safe. Today, allow yourself to let go and become attached to yourself by learning to love, approve, appreciate yourself.

Just for today, I am willing to let go. I give myself permission to let go. I forgive everyone for all past perceived wrongs. I release them with love. They are now free and I am now free to move forward with love in my heart. I am safe, divinely guided and protected. All is truly well in my world. And so it is.
