Dear Kurt, 

People tend to talk nonsense about things that matter. I mean, who cares these days about the true meaning of some pretty words, that can fix a person more than a gift, bought to bring up the scenario we live on - based on appearances, on social acceptable behaviors. Why? I can't understand. People say it a lot that we need to let things go for the simple reason that they are heavy. But, and this is my doubt, does someone put some kind of sense in their words?

How can we explain to a broken person that she needs to let go? How can we explain her how to let it go? It's just too difficult. I guess there are some battles we have to fight alone. And to let go of things we once cared too much about or things that made such harm is a battle to face alone.

But I had to let go of some things I had never thought about leaving. And I can say that the pain and the constant grief of the process can never be compared to the joy of feeling the weight of your own ghosts getting out of your mind.

It's a dull task, for there's a long road to walk alone and a lot of effort to keep expectations away. However, today I have to admit that the most productive thing I’ve ever have done - and believe me it's not really my thing to be productive - was letting go of those heavy ghosts. But some are still inside. 

It's just not possible to keep things inside forever. The world gets too busy, life goes too fast and it will seem as something inevitable to do - to move on. And - inspite not being the easiest - it's the best thing we can do.

I'll finish with this thought I've just had and that comforted me: there are those who say they talk to themselves and wonder if that's creepy. I talk to you, and that makes perfect sense to me. 

«Peace, love, empathy.»
