LOSLATEN… is hét werkwoord en helpt om verder te gaan. We hebben gewoon geen tijd te verliezen over iets dat 10, 20, 30 jaar geleden is voorgevallen. Het vreet energie en lost uiteindelijk niets (meer) op. De enige die je raakt ben jezelf. 

LOSLATEN betekent niet dat iemand of iets je niets meer kan schelen. Het betekent alleen dat het tijd is om een dikke streep onder en door bepaalde zaken uit het verleden te trekken en verder te gaan. 

Blijven hangen en oude koeien uit de stinkende gracht vissen, heeft zelden iemand vooruit geholpen. Integendeel, verbittering en frustratie loeren om de hoek.

Hieronder 28 hele mooie en inspirerende quotes over LOSLATEN … en verder gaan met je leven.
