make it stop

One of the things that makes it so difficult to let go is the fear of the unknown -- the fear of not knowing where we'll fall once we let go, how much the fall would hurt, and how we'll recover from it. We're afraid that the plans we've made might fall through once they become real, because no matter how much we brace ourselves for it, sometimes the real thing might not be what we had hoped it would be.

Where once I was dying for time to fly by so that things could change, I would now sell my soul to keep everything the way it is, the way it used to be.
