The Miracle of Forgiveness

Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heal that has crushed it.
Mark Twain

This week has been a very transformational week for me; a week that I didn’t see coming. There has been a particular person in my life that has caused me a lot of pain and I am sure I have caused just as much. We have been at odds for almost two years now and no matter how much I have ignored the situation and tried to press on, it has come back on a regular basis causing me and the other person stress, anxiety and sadness. My sister sent me a book called Radical Forgiveness. She made me promise to read at least the first chapter. When it came this week I did exactly that. The first few pages were nothing special for me but, by the time I got nearly to the end of the chapter I had a major epiphany.

In the book the author says “The healing occurs the moment you become willing to let in the idea that your soul has lovingly created this situation for you. If you can really surrender to the idea that the Universe will handle this for you if you turn it over, you won’t need to do anything at all. The situation and your healing will both get handled automatically.” This was the case for me. I liken this scenario to puppet masters; the soul pulling the strings of the puppet; the person for the person and souls greater well being.

My perception of the situation between us was clouded by my ego and once I was able to see that we are both pushing each others buttons to heal our issues in her case abandonment and in mine not being good enough it cleared the path for healing. Healing so profound in fact that it is nothing short of a miracle.

Have an excellent day.

You weren't born with any limits on your powers or any set limits to your capacity. At any moment, you have more possibilities than you can act upon.

Imagine your possibilities and your vision expands. Capture your dreams in your mind and your life becomes full. Reach out and touch the limits of your being in your mind.

If you think you can, you can.

The Importance of Water Consumption

The following will probably amaze and startle you...

One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University study.

Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease ! back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen.

Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

While drinking 64 ounces of water everyday may sound like an easy task, it can get a little boring. What I suggest is adding the juice of half a lemon to 32 ounces of water with a sprinkle of Steviva Brand Stevia Powder . Aside from being less than 2 carbs, you will get the health benefits that the stevia provides along with the vitamin C and electrolytes that lemon have. You can substitute limes for lemons if you get bored. Click here to order stevia powder.

YOUR SPIRIT

You Know The Way

"Woe to the man whose heart has not learned while young to hope, to love ... and to put its trust in life." -- Joseph Conrad

How deeply do you trust your own guidance?

Always trust that you know what's best for you. To move forward in your life, gather information from the "experts," consider how their advice relates to your situation and then act only on what feels right for you. You are the only expert for your own life.

"I trust so much in the power of the heart and the soul; I know that the answer to what we need to do next is in our own hearts. All we have to do is listen, then take that one step further and trust what we hear. We will be taught what we need to learn." -- Melody Beattie

"I never know what the next lesson is going to be, because we’re not supposed to know; we’re supposed to trust ourselves to discover it." -- Melody Beattie
