A recent Monday night was the holder of a beautiful lesson of the wave of emotions that will offer me a new pair of glasses to see that I am growing. To make a long story short I was victim of an act of immaturity that brought anger, sadness, fear of not being safe and revenge to my present state of awareness. I was hurt by the act of another human being that immediately created a need for ill-will, revenge and an obsessing array of thoughts of how I will get back at this person for making me feel this way. Let me tell you that my old patterns of behavior were on a rampage. I recall this gut wrenching feeling that was powerful, all-consuming and sickening. All I could do was sit and manifest these thoughts into my next move. Then a light of understanding covered my entire Being. I sat in silence with my feelings and began to reflect on what was really happening. This act of stupidity was not a reflection of me, I did not create this hostility in my life and what I've learned is that the only thing I can control is my response to such things. This person is a beautiful soul who means no harm and I clearly know that he did not sit in contemplation on how he would hurt me. I was all of a sudden NOT attached to the situation at hand but rather in contemplation as to what my part of it was and the lesson I was to learn. Love is an energy that flows all around us, we merely push it from one to another. It was now my understanding that rather to find a way to hurt this individual, I would love him even more. I would meditate the energy of love to him, all around him and for him. We are all in a personal state of awareness and the actions that we proclaim are a direct result of that awareness. Some of us are farther along in the process, but that makes us no better. God's plan is not for us to understand, but to have faith in knowing that it is for the best. For me I must remember that I never lose, I either win or I learn. What I have learned from this process is that I am a child of God, and that I walk with my brothers and sisters. I have a purpose to respond to the Universe in a loving and purposeful way and to be of Service, even to those who may harm me. Namaste.

Revenge as my Teacher
A recent Monday night was the holder of a beautiful lesson of the wave of emotions that will offer me a new pair of glasses to see that I am growing.
