The Positiveness in Letting Go and the Meaning of "busy"

What does it mean to be busy?  Really, what does it mean?  We all have those moments in our lives when we really are just so overwhelmed with work, with family issues, with life issues, multiple obligations, school work, and so on, and so on.  As of late, however, I have noticed the word busy being used as an excuse to avoid things.  The biggest overuse of the word busy seems to be in the avoidance of relationship issues.  Whether it is a friend or a boyfriend, or a girlfriend constantly saying, "I'm just so busy", or, "I don't have time to talk", it makes you think long and hard about what they mean by the word "busy".
When you start to think on such things, you may find yourself getting really sad over the situation.  You may wonder if the person ever really thought much of you at all.  Was your friendship real?  Was it of any value?
 I know the answer to the last question is definitely YES!  Even if you never get the time or opportunity to be with that person ever again, you will still have learned a very valuable lesson from them.  You will have learned that you are strong enough to move on without them, even if it seemed that you would never be able to do it...you can keep on going!  It may hurt you to move on, but over time that hurt will heal and will only make you more convicted and stronger.
 If someone really wants you in their life, they will make the time to be a part of yours.  When you learn that it is okay to let them go, you will be empowering yourself to move on.  It doesn't mean that you should be disrespectful of them, or ignore them when you see them, it just means that you are allowing yourself to be freed from the emotional tie that they had on you....and then you can continue to dream, and hope and be positive!  That is the positiveness in letting go :)
