A "Let Go Or Be Dragged" list

Just saw this great list of signs that it might be time to let go and thought I'd share it here.

Here's the link:
http://www.iheartintelligence.com/20...e-let-go-move/

Here's the list:

20 Signs It’s Time To Let Go And Move On

1. When your thoughts go to memories more than the present.

2. When the situation causes you more pain than joy.

3. When you expect, hope and plead for the person, place or situation to change.

4. When you become complacent, bored or resentful.

5. When the pattern persists even though you tried to fix it.

6. When you feel alone, unheard or disrespected.

7. When the situation is holding you back from growing and being who you want to be.

8. When you stay, hoping and expecting things to get better.

9. When you cry more than you laugh and love.

10. When you feel exhausted emotionally, spiritualty and physically.

11. When you have lost your passion and joy.

12. When you core beliefs and values have changed and you sacrifice who you are.

13. When you stop having fun.

14. When you fear this is the best it will be.

15. When you force a smile to mask the pain.

16. When you lose who you are and stop dreaming.

17. When you hold on out of fear of the unknown.

18. When you sense you are holding onto something meant to be let go.

19. When the thought of being free of the situation feels expansive.

20. When you believe in a better life for yourself.

I love this! I am all of them, some more than others, but all of them to some degree. I got dragged, that's for sure. Thank you for sharing it.

18. When you sense you are holding onto something meant to be let go.

I feel this all the time, and all of them to some degree, but this one really rings true for me.
Thanks for sharing these

Thank you - I believe I had all of these - and AH has been gone over 1 month now! I need to re read this when my codie moments occur - and they do!

I really feel a need to say a prayer for anyone who is still living in these.


May you find clarity and peace.

I could have used this list back in April when (now X)ABF and I decided to go on a break rather than breaking up completely - all of these resonate so much with me.
