Least Said – Soonest Mended

I used to hear my parents say, “Least said – soonest mended.” I thought I knew what that meant. Yet the truth is that these four words are powerful. If only I would pay more attention to these words now as I go through my journey; as I go through the ups and downs of my day; as I witness seemingly, unfair actions; as I feel my own judgments emerge. I must step out of the place of judgment immediately.
Perhaps all I will do is breathe love into all of these situations; center myself in that place of light and unconditional love and forgiveness; accept that these things are coming into my focus not from a stand point of fixing, or trying to make them right, but simply from a place of the most powerful, healing, energy known to exist; the focus must be love. Wow! This feels good! This is being in integrity for me. I’ve got this!

Ego Driven World

In an ego driven world there is no room for compassion. Everyone climbing mercilessly over their neighbor, their work partners, their spouses, their children and the list goes on.
The ego, in this instance is the fear that is the driving force; the fear of failure. Who gets to decide what is failure? When did we decide to stand in such harsh judgment of ourselves?
Now, more than any time in the world we need to be cognizant of our God given power. We need to be good to ourselves, and that means not being so harsh when we don’t feel we have measured up. This means loving ourselves, and others, unconditionally now! There is no time to wait. Love is the most powerful tool in our arsenal. Let’s get it out, dust it off and polish it up and let it shine!
I am ready. Are you? I’ve got this!

Understanding Emotions

As the tears roll steadily down my face, I search my soul for understanding. My being aches to be free from this pain and when I ask, “Why am I feeling this way?” the darkness inside me responds, “There is nothing good about you. Anyone, who could do those things that you have chosen to do, in the past, cannot be good.” And my higher self responds, “Isn’t this what forgiveness is about? Isn’t this the time I get to forgive myself for any of those choices I made in the past that affect my life today?
And now my soul feels the recognition of those words. It is, indeed, time to look into my heart and find that forgiveness that God has given me as a tool. This tool of forgiveness is not only to be used for others in my life; it is to be used for me.
How do I do this? What are the steps?
I pick up a mirror and I look into those eyes of mine; those eyes that are sad and tear-filled; I look steadily into those eyes and I feel the greatest compassion for my being. I speak out loud.
“You!
I want you to know that my love for you is eternal. I love your soul. I love the essence of you. In my eyes you are a beautiful, loving, giving, sensitive, intelligent and kind child of God. You always were and you always will be.
It is time to feel the unconditional love you have for all those sharing your world. It is time to forgive you and let go of all that pain from the past. I love you without condition and I forgive you.”
AS the tears subside, I turn and look out of the window to see a massive expanse of blue sky and I give thanks to God for this new beginning. I got this! Oh! Welcome back joy!
