Once you discover, uncover that one sacred place within your being that was wounded…its time to re-cover. The Universe will keep bringing the same pattern to our doorstep until we respond differently with that pattern rather than engaging it with “hope” in our hearts. The lesson is not that we are capable of loving those with faults, tragic flaws, darkness, selfishness, narcissism…we already know we can (and often that means we love those who cant really love us back in a responsible, safe, nurturing, comforting way).
Part of the lesson is we cant change others and we can’t change what happened. We must recover from “that”, the first instance we felt pain of neglect, abandonment, abuse (fill in the blank) as a child….Our adult self can forgive, but our child selves with our child minds still struggle to auto-correct and want to change the outcome. So we bring the same situations to our doorstep over and over again desperately trying to change the outcome. It won’t change. It can’t.
So how do we re-cover and shift? We forgive the one(s) who wounded us, love them regardless, forgive and love ourselves, accept we can not change the situation from the past or the person AND set the intention daily to heal entirely. We seek outside help from those who are healers AND we ask, meditate , pray, send Reiki (fill in the blank) to that sacred pain – this is our own homework towards restoration. We embrace our child self, love that child, become that child’s guardian angel, and hold that child’s hand through the confusion and pain. And we tell that child: “I will make sure you recognize this pattern in your own future, bless it when you encounter it and walk in the other direction rather than engaging it.”
Sending peace, light, love, restoration, compassion and kindness to all the wounded souls who need it, including myself
