Let Go and Choose Peace

“You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist.” - Indira Gandhi

They might feel like protection, like armour. But the truth?
They’re the poison you carry while longing for peace.

When your fists are clenched - emotionally, mentally, spiritually - you block what you desire most: healing, connection, and inner calm. You cannot welcome love when your heart is gripped by old pain. You cannot move forward when your energy is spent reliving what hurt you.

These emotions are not wrong - they’re signs.
They’re showing you where you’re still hurting. Where you long to be heard, seen, and understood.
But staying in them won’t set you free.

Peace begins the moment one person chooses love over being right.
And that person can be you.

What if you didn’t need the apology to heal?
What if you didn’t need them to change for you to find freedom?
What if you opened your hands, released the weight, and chose peace because you deserve it?

Healing begins with love.
Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself.
Peace isn’t something you wait for - it’s a decision.

You don’t need anyone else to make that choice for you. You have the power now.

Will you choose love?
