Sick Woman, 1665, by Jan Steen
In order to change we must be sick and tired of being sick and tired. ~Author Unknown
Of all the comforts that I have been given
and every prescriptions I have taken
the medicine of simply letting go
has been the truest remedy of them all.

Wow ... perhaps that's what we should all try !!!
ReplyDelete?go?
ReplyDeleteAnd I so agree.
Hard lesson though
Letting go, walking away from negativity, from anger, from malice. A prescription for healthier living!! (love the header)
ReplyDeleteIs that letting go? That can be a very difficult and valuable thing to learn! That's a little gem of wisdom to keep in mind.
ReplyDeleteaint that the truth...we sure weigh ourselves down with all we cling to...and once you really let 'go'...what a relief...
ReplyDeleteHow true! In this case, it's sometimes good to be sick!
ReplyDeleteVery nicely done, and I adore that quote of we must be sick and tired of being sick and tired! Great header photo also!
ReplyDeleteThis makes me think of the saying:
ReplyDelete"Let go and let God."
I agree that letting go is a good thing to strive for.
Letting go is medicine to the soul. :)
ReplyDeleteVery well done - so simply said. k.
ReplyDeletewords of wisdom and poetry all in one! good stuff ;)
ReplyDeleteSuch a great lesson, if we could live by these words!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more. The truest remedy and sometimes the hardest to achieve. Well said.
ReplyDeleteKnowing when to let go and when to hang on is no small feat. And love the quote!
ReplyDeleteha..the quote is way cool...so is your verse...simply letting go..that's wise...and not always easy..
ReplyDelete"Letting go" - so easy and so hard, right? :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful in its brevity. The second to the last line...is it supposed to be letting go?
ReplyDeleteThat is indeed the best remedy, I completely agree. Great write!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the best remedy! :-)
ReplyDeleteLetting go...easier said than done, but oh the relief when we do. Well said.
ReplyDeleteWow, yes, and sometimes the hardest pill to swallow~
ReplyDeleteWow, great write! :D
Definitely true for spiritual ills, and many of the body as well. Nice!
ReplyDeleteOMG, this is BRILLIANT. And likely the hardest lesson to learn.
ReplyDeleteOh so true!
ReplyDeleteA prescription we must write for ourselves...

Lovely composition. A human should always thrive for this, letting the hard times go is the only remedy :)

Wise words indeed.
ReplyDeleteA cure for many ills I think. Your poem works with the image too - I am probably being unfair on the doctor, but I do feel an urge for him to let go of her hand!
