Why is it so easy to hold on,
And so hard to let go.

Humans are naturally resistant to change - you see it all the time.
How many times have you heard people say - "but we've always done it this way?"

I would say it depends on what it is you are holding onto. If you are holding onto a grudge, your life is much easier if you let go. If you are holding onto someone you love, it is better to let go. I am at a point in my life where I realize that I can't hold onto anything really so I have let go and what is meant to be will come back.

Comfort zone. You get used to something and no matter how much it hurts you, you feel you need to hold on to it because people are just naturally afraid of change - fear of the unknown. Let go - be free - be you.

to hold onto something you have been accostomed to for so long is difficult. people fear change and to let go requires a complete change. sometimes though holding on isnt always the best solution.

Good Question.. I think I'm more of the opposite.. I can let go with ease.. it's the holding on that I struggle with..

Change is always difficult, so it's easier to cling to past hopes and dreams than it is to move on and make new ones. But life is change. Embrace the change as an opportunity for new experiences; besides, wouldn't you get bored if nothing ever changed?

Letting go leaves things to chance. And chance rarely ends without change. Change is difficult and unpredictable. Which is your answer. People fear the unknown. Good luck to you.

Some people say its because we're "NEEDY". But I say its because we're lonely and we attach ourselves to anything and everything. And once we've established taht attachment, its like pulling teeth to let go. Wish I could help more, but I know how you feel. It gets better with time. Don't let it get you down, and don't attach yourself so easily. Learn how to make distance. :)
