“You must let go” said the Angel to the child.
The most beautiful woman that you have ever seen, flowing in white and silver, with wings of stardust.
“But I can’t, I love him so” cried the little child with tears in her eyes.
The Angel looked on with remorseful eyes into those that cried. The child bent over with flowing tears, the Angel said “But you must my dear”. “I can’t do that” cried the little child “I rather leave with you and never return because I am afraid without him I am nothing” wept the child.
The Angel softly touched the child’s hunched shoulder and whispered “But that’s not true my child, turn around and look at your life”.
With that the angel raised the weeping child and turned her to look at her life “Without him you are not nothing. There is a whole world out there for you, but he is the chains that bind you here. He is what prevents you from conquering this world, which is your life laid out in front of your very eyes”
The child gazed out to the most beautiful sight on earth before her - her life expanding into the horizon, the rising suns rays penetrated the clouds , the burst of orange blinding her eyes drying the tears.
The little child fell on her knees and softly said “But im afraid without him I wont be able to breathe”
“You will breathe again my child, you will be happy again, and in time this will be a distant memory” said the Angel to the child. “You must let go now, for with him you are bound to this limbo where you don’t find sanity, where you don’t find peace. You must let him be and go forth to conquer your own destiny”.
With no more tears left to shed but alas not even a smile to be spared the little child looked up the Angel and took in all her glory and asked “Will I be able to walk again, for he carried me wherever we went?”
Said the Angel to the child “You will crawl out of here down on all fours, how far you go before you realize you can stand up and walk is up to you my dear, for the strength to find your footing lies only but within you. Go hence my child, it’s a perilous journey. Have strength my child. Believe that without him you will be alright."
And so set forth the little child, crawling out of the shell that bound her, towards the beautiful earth and the blinding rays, “My life I come for you” said she, before she got off her knees and girl walked on towards her destiny.
