“so fill your heart with what’s important and be done with all the rest…” It is so easy to fall into the mind blaming…what should I have done…what could s/he could have done…why did this happen to me...if only game. It is easy for us to wallow in our own grief and forget that there is hope for us…there is life out there…our heart needs to be filled with desire and love.
We can choose to stay in the dung heap, or get up out of it, and find a new direction and a new way of being. Each day truly offers a new opportunity. Each day offers new people to meet and new friends to make! We are made to spread love in this world…and, foremost, to be gentle with ourselves and give love to ourselves. When things become too much, when people have left you for another, when you are just fed-up with all that is going wrong–GOOD! This observation is a SIGN to you to MOVE FORWARD! That is the time to throw all that grief out of your life and BEGIN again! Life is a series of beginning and endings…but if something is ending…something new is about to begin! Keep your life going…weep a little for yourself, be gentle with you, and then leave it behind…and go forward with your heart…”filling your heart with what is important!”

Your words come from strength and power. I know you feel you have neither but I know that is not true. Perhaps, for so many years of your life, there were too many people telling you that you possessed neither attribute and you believed them all.
However, I believe you are strong and powerful and will come out the other end of this rabbit hole. And I want to be there when it happens.
Love,
Maryellen
