A time to let go

I quote from Gloria Naylor:

Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over. 


Personally, I think this not only applies to friends, but also to your loved ones. If you mean well, there is always a time where you'll need to let go because that's where the learning will begin. Failure to do that will only lead to over-reliance on others and low self-esteem.

Let go so as to let them grow.
