EACH OTHERS MEMORIES

A friend called me about a situation that she felt she needed to make a decision about.  I listened to her and gave her the advice she gives me when I feel pressured.

"Just relax," I counselled.  "You are always doing the best you can.  If you could be doing any better you would be.  So no regrets, no fear, no anger, no guilt, and no resentment.  The less judgement the better.  Just keep loving yourself unconditionally."

"But how did I attract this situation?"  She wondered.

"Asking that question in judgement is the same as regret.  Only ask it if the purpose is to clarify something in yourself that you feel you no longer have a need for. This is just another chance to release something that you have outgrown.  It's an ongoing process."

We talked more about the specifics, and how everyone is really going through a great transformation right now in their personal lives.

The cocoon of the worm is confining to the butterfly.  There is always a passage through change.  It happens continually.  There is no need to resist it or resent it.  Each situation in our lives is there to transform us in some way.  To guide us more fully to our authentic selves.

"You're right," she said.  "I just need to focus on myself."

"I'm just telling you the same thing you always tell me," I confessed.

We are each other's memory.  All of us.  We are here to remember each other, and how we experienced the world. 

PRAISES , THANKS, & BLESSINGS!!!
