I learned a new phrase in dog training, Leave it. The phrase applies to those human and dog situations where you keep looking back, wanting to engage with that other dog, person, memory, stream of regrets and other dark thoughts.
Leave it helps me imagine the simple act of walking away.. that dark cloud of energy dropping back and dissolving in the air.
I believe there is no benefit to the kind of suffering on repeat tied to grief and loss. There are times when we must Leave it.
