Letting Go...

When released, a Dove consistently is able to find it's way back home. People and love are never consistent. There is a saying that if you love someone set them free, if they come back it's meant to be.

I've let many loves go; some came back for awhile, some never did. And for 1 or 2 of the loves, I must admit, I wonder if I should have even let them go?
