Good afternoon,
How was the weekend for you? I have to say, yesterday definitely felt more like Fall. I do believe we are approaching a change of seasons here in Colorado. I had a nice weekend with my family up in Estes Park – it was my Dad’s 70 birthday! Hard to believe my Dad has hit this big mark in his life. I’m really glad he and my Mom are in such good health and that they take of themselves. For my Dad, he is a very driven man, perhaps not by the right energies but he does push himself to get things done and stay active. I’m grateful to have my parents alive and also for a relationship with them.
I will say it hasn’t always been this way. Growing up was very difficult being the baby of the family. I had a very different view of how things worked and perceived a lot of tensions and emotions all throughout my childhood. It’s interesting to see how the family dynamics have evolved over the years and how now, us, the kids, have become adults and have experienced the world in a lot of varying degrees up to this point and it’s given all of us a very different view of the world we perceive.
I want to address the topic of forgiveness that been coming up rather a lot for me in group meetings and with a few of my clients. The quote for today is, “In the blink of an eye everything can change. So forgive often and love with all your heart. You may never know when you may not have the chance again.” Think about that statement for a minute, how often do you an I hold this negative aspect so close to our hearts and minds it become toxic to our mental health.? If we are choosing not to forgive a moment may pass us by and leave us with regret and shame. I’ve thought about this very thing a lot over my life and I could never grapple with the concept of fully understanding forgiveness. I’ve seen this play out in my family as I’m sure you’ve seen in your own. One member of the family chooses a way forward to mend and repair past hurts and abuses, the other does not and allows the bitterness to foster a lot of collateral damage in their lives.
Meditate on this for this upcoming week, in what areas could you begin to forgive others? A bigger question to ask is, in what areas can you begin to forgive yourself for the mistakes you’ve made? It all starts with you and I and with the relationship with ourselves. There’s a lot of peace and healing that can come from working on these areas of our lives and I desire to share more about this in the coming days.
Love & Light
Namaste 🙂
