People often say that One needs to cut the apron Strings that attach them to their mothers. Though they aren't real apron strings, It's simply a metaphor for letting go.
Personally I believe that we have yarn Strings or maybe chain links that Attach us to the people we love.
Possibly we have strings for those In our lives that arethe beginnings of Love or the people we hold special to Us, like our friends or our former Loves.
And maybe we have chain links that Forever attach us to the people we Love. I heard once that if you truly fall In love with someone you never really Stop loving them.
I have chain links and yarn strings Around my heart. I wonder if you're a Chain link or a yarn strings.
