The way I have come to understand the feeling, or at least rationalize it is that those parts of me that are being healed had highly emotionally charged events and situations tied to them.
As those parts of me are being healed, in a way, I am also letting go of the core emotions that drove those feelings.
It's like saying goodbye to a friend. It became such a part of me.
And I feel I am also mourning my own pain that I suffered during those times.
I know that whatever I feel at the other side of this will be the person that I am going to eventually become. To become that person, I need to let go of many things that I once held onto, even if what I held onto wasn't good for me.
Take solace in knowing that whatever it is you're saying goodbye to, there is something far greater that is awaiting your hello.
Wow man, thanks for this post. There's an incredible amount of hope in that last sentence.
