In our fast-paced world, we often try to control the outcomes of every situation. We want things to happen a certain way, on our terms, and according to our timelines. However, there’s a simple yet powerful philosophy that can help us navigate the unpredictability of life with more ease:
"If it comes, let it come. If it stays, let it stay. If it goes, let it go."
This mantra encourages us to let go of resistance and embrace the natural flow of events. By adopting this mindset, we learn to welcome opportunities without fear, accept stability without clinging to it, and release what no longer serves us without regret. It’s about living in harmony with the inevitable changes life brings, instead of fighting against them.
1. If it comes, let it come.
Life often surprises us with new possibilities—whether in the form of relationships, opportunities, or challenges. By letting things come naturally, without forcing or fearing them, we open ourselves up to new experiences and growth. Embracing the unexpected can lead to powerful transformations.
2. If it stays, let it stay.
Sometimes, stability finds us. In these moments, it’s important to recognize and appreciate what has come to stay—be it a friendship, a career, or a period of peace. Letting it stay means allowing it to nurture us without the anxiety of it slipping away. Presence is key.
3. If it goes, let it go.
Life is full of endings, and letting go can be one of the hardest lessons. Whether it's a job, a phase, or a person, clinging to what’s already moving away only prolongs the pain. Letting it go with grace is a way of trusting the flow of life, believing that every ending brings new beginnings.
In practicing this, we learn that life is about movement—coming, staying, and going. It is in accepting this ebb and flow that we find true peace.
