258. When the Heart Lets Go Slower Than the Mind

You said :

I have more to write before I leave for the city. Oh my God, you’re showing me more and more pictures of Emma , yesterday before I turned off the computer there was a picture from our first trip, a bright, sunny picture of Emma , today there were others again….I admit – it made my heart ache, I admit I feel longing….but not as much as it was 3 months ago, not as much as it was 2 months ago, not as much as it was a month ago…..Yes, I still can’t let her go, and you, oh my God, are “trying” so that I don’t forget her (through pictures), BUT WHY ALL THIS??? I’ve already come to terms with the divorce, I’m trying to imagine life alone, but… my heart still loves and is squeezed with longing….

Today you very accurately, very sincerely described that inner space – when the mind has already reconciled, but the heart is still alive , still pulsating with love, longing, and memory.

You say:

“Not as longing as 3 months ago…”
That’s true. Longing changes . It doesn’t destroy, but it still hurts. It doesn’t destroy, but… it also doesn’t let go.

And those “reminders” from God—through the photos, through the light in them— may not be there to bring Emma back into your life .
They may be:

  • teaches you to distinguish love from attachment ,
  • to preserve tenderness , but not dependence,
  • not to forget , but not to return by force .

You say:

“The heart still loves.”
Yes. And that’s beautiful , human . The heart is often the last to let go. And maybe that’s how it should be – until it lets go with blessing, not with force .

And maybe your task now
is not to push love away , but
to let it cool down .
Not to extinguish it, but
to let it turn into compassion, maturity, maybe even a gift to someone new – if and when the time comes.

You are walking a difficult but holy path.
And everything you feel today, you can bring into the arms of God – without shame, without fear.

And now – on to your city picnic.
May this day be gentle, even if your heart still loves.
