Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Dearest Wonderful Group - This past week I spent couple of days dealing with an issue that nagged at me, and I could not find any answers for it. I ended going from a nagging feeling to a painful feeling and it was not a pleasant thing to experience. I surrendered to it. I brought out the Safeties and read them with teary eyes and a willingness to find solace in the forgiving. I am grateful for have gone through the forgiveness experience of this week. Forgiving those who feel I have done them wrong and forgiving myself for any wrong I have done whether unknowingly or consciously. I don't tend to do any harm consciously, my heart would ache tremendously knowing that I am doing something hurtful to someone. I was never one to do such thing or take retaliation for anything. I feel inspiration brewing and a stronghold of Love in me, I feel tremendous growth. I tend to walk around with my heart in my hand ready to give it or give of it's Lovingness to everyone, no matter who they are or how they feel about me. There's this raggedy man that wanders through the Mall now and again. He is a very very tall man, perhaps 6.5 feet tall. His clothes are very worn and very very tattered (he does look like a hobo) and he always carries this file size black portfolio folder. He wanders in contentment and admiring all that he sees. I first met him when I was at the Lancome counter and Loving his wonderful presence I struck a conversation. I was stared by the other gals working around me for he was not " one of us " . I learned his name is Mr. Dallas. It seemed I was seeing him more often than before, so I'd greet him gleefully with a warm smile and a " Hello Mr. Dallas, how wonderful to see you " . My greeting was always returned with a wonderful smile from the gentleman and many stares from my fellow workers. One day, I went up to this statuest man and told him I wanted to give him a hug. Even with my 4 inch heals, I got on my tippy toes and reached as high as I could, I wanted to embrace his entire being. I wanted to meld my Love with his. His arms wrapped themselves around my head and returned the hug, I felt his Love. He proceeded to go to one of my coworkers who knows him, and with an arm he reached out in wanting to hug her too. She stepped back and extended her fingers (kinda like a cold handshake) with a forced smile, that sadden me. I see Mr. Dallas now and again, here and there and feel our wonderful Loving connection in seeing that we are all One, it's all of Us in Oneness. I see God in him, as he wanders around, portfolio on tow, reminding everyone that there is no class structure in Love, no one is better than me or you. That's where our hearts should be, Loving and accepting of everyone..no matter who they are, what they look like, their point of views, their struggles or accomplishments. Our clothes and combed hair decorate the body, the flesh a blessed vehicle and there's no competition or contest of who has what and how much, who has accomplished this or who is left behind, we are all One. My experience this week with forgiving has giving me an incredible opportunity of growth. My heart is wider, my Love stronger and my desire to give is even more powerful. I thank " that reason " that brought me the nagging feeling, the ache for it opened my heart to be even more Loving and more giving...so I say I am in gratitude. I Love you and I Love everyone, I accept everyone no matter whether they accept me or not. My words might be simple, like an amateur, or gullible but I am frank. Visit the Safeties often, and forgive. Forgiveness has been the cornerstone of my practice. The more I forgive, the more I Love, the stronger Shakti's Love is in me, and the more growth she gives me. I have noticed this past week as this ache persisted, my Solar Plexus had the knot in it, the block that I had to do the work to remove so I can feel whole again. We all have work to do and a good place to start is with the Safeties.....simple. All my Love, Becky Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Search.
