FEBRUARY 2006 NEWSLETTER

OPENING UP SPACE FOR LOVE THROUGH
FORGIVENESS

Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today? -Mary Manin Morrissey

On our Western calendars February is a time to honor love by expressing this feeling to those who are important to us. We give cards, flowers, candy etc. to express our sentiments of loving even when we believe that some or many really are not fully deserving of our love. Often our grievances circumvent our expressions of love. Which is unfortunate because it blocks us from what all want to experience.

Love is so much more than an emotion. Love is a universal energy, which is available to everyone to receive. I believe that love is God expressing to us the abundant availability of everything that we could desire: prosperity, peace, joy, radiant health and so much more. Grievances are blocks, which have denied us from receiving a free flow of this energy. We have often believed that our grievance were an insulation, a protection from hurts, disappoint and failure. Many believe that without their grievances they are vulnerable to people and circumstances. But in reality what grievances do is to create an energy around us that begins to attract those things that will hurt, disappoint and designate failure.

All of our grievances are in our past…we do not experience them except through our past, a past that is no longer present. It doesn’t matter if the event that caused the grievance happened one minute ago or ten years ago we still relive it over and over again.
What most don’t realize is that each time this grievance is revisited a block is put in place and our flow, that all providing flow of love is shut off. Without this flow we become limited, our prosperity begins to diminish, and love is no longer an active force in our lives. Life becomes unfulfilling, flat, dreary and painful. We become untrusting, critical, condemning, and unhappy.

Forgiveness offers a bridge of reconnecting with the flow that is always present around you. Your grievances do not prevent anyone else from being in the flow, connecting with the love, receiving the prosperity, the peace and radiant health. The only one that suffers is you…not the person that hurt you, not the event that disappointed you…only you. Forgiveness is a process that undoes your past beliefs allowing you freedom and opening the door to love. Forgiveness does not say that the behavior was acceptable or the disappointment was not experience. Forgiveness says that you are no longer willing to carry that energy forward into your life! Forgiveness is a statement of being ready and willing to receive from the Universal flow of love. Forgiveness is a statement of self- responsibility to have all that life offers. To live life abundantly, joyfully, peacefully and radiantly!!! Forgiveness says that you are willing to let your past go and enter into the next moment with open hands and a glad heart!

Can you think of any valid reason not to forgive? Can you think of any valid reason not to reconnect with Universal love? If forgiveness is something that you are ready to practice and you will need to practice… because true forgiveness is only accomplished through forgetting the hurt, disappointment etc. So a measure of true forgives is to practice and until you no longer remember the grievance. It becomes unimportant. It may be difficult to believe that this can occur…but it does and what replaces it is far more wonderful than you could possibly imagine. It is important to remember to forgive yourself! It will make forgiving other people and circumstances easier!

Happy Valentines Day: I celebrate you in love, prosperity and peace because that is what you deserve and so much more!!!!

Blessings,

Danielle
