At the end of the day when I crawl into bed and all the lights go out, my thoughts can finally rise to the surface. Yes I’m a little bruised, slightly broken, and permanently scarred but I’m still here, I’m still fighting, I’m still waking up everyday to go through it all over again. This life may be hard as hell but it’s still a gift and I’m going to live every moment of it.....`*.¸.*¸.•**•.¸ (✿◠‿◠)˙•٠•● ƸӜƷ•.¸¸.•´ ... ☾ °☆ . * ● ¸ .Good morning★ ° :. . • ○ ° ★ . * . . ° . ● . ° ☾ °☆ ¸. ● . ★ ★ ° God made you to be someone very special in His eyes… Why would you want to be anything less than brilliant? Let yourself be free to be who He made you to be. ..`*.¸.* This week I had a chance to consider letting go in a new light. Ive written before about how I try to find the admonishment to let go helpful when Im hanging on by my finger tips, even when I can see that what I am hanging on to is not particularly useful. I have found the inner directive to let it be somewhat more correct in helping me loosen a desperate grasp and rest in what is. Letting go of beliefs or mental/emotional preoccupations that are causing suffering isnt so much an intellectual decision (oh that it was- most of us can see when its not doing us any good!) If we believe it is, well probably bury what we think we should let go of in our unconscious- and that only makes matters worse. Now were hanging on, but we arent consciously aware of hanging, so how could we possibly let go? Not a step in the right direction. And something in my brain lit up as I thought, Oooooo, what would that look like when we need to let go mentally or emotionally? What might help us find a supported position emotionally or mentally from which we could more easily and deeply let go of preoccupations that are causing us suffering? The first things that came to my mind were tenderness and mercy. When I slip into the feeling of tenderness, of holding my own or others thoughts or emotions without judgment but with a sense of real caring, I am more comfortable with whatever arises- and I can let go of those thoughts or emotions more easily, allow them to rise and fall, to appear and pass away. It is, strangely, the very act of judging and tightening against what arises that makes it hard to let go. We often think that trying harder will get us where we want to go. And sometimes, it does. But in the letting-go-endeavors- whether physical, mental or emotional- finding an inner or outer place where we can rest comfortably with what is, is much more likely to help us truly let go where we may have been unintentionally holding on. As human beings we are receptive in so many ways- physically, emotionally, intuitively, knowing on a feeling level what has value for our heart-soul-life and what does not. . . . If we use all of the gifts we are given, wisdom to continue in this beautiful thing called life, a sustainable way just might find us. When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I wouldnt have a single bit of talent left and could say, I used everything you gave me. Sometimes you have to go through the valley to appreciate the beauty of the mountain.~`*.¸.*ღϠ₡ღ¸.´´¯`.¸¸.Ƹ̴Ӂ̴Ʒ..
