Guilt
Wrong turns, wrong choices, wrong decisions-we all take wrong turns, make wrong decisions and choices. This is a human trait, even the saintliest of the saints has experienced this. We stumble, we fall, but many of us manage to get up and get on with life.
The losses incurred at times may be life-threatening, or at the cost of financial comfort and security or worst, relationships are threatened, lost, sadly but innocently or unconsciously someone else has to bear consequences and the sacrifice.
Wearing guilt on your sleeves, in your heart, in your being invites negative vibrations and digs you deeper into the mire. Take a look at those sad eyes, the window of the soul, and you™ll know. However, this is not a dead-end!
Unfulfilled dreams and hopes
Live your dream,ride on the wings of hope- this will not always work out. One day you wake up and realize your dream never materialized and now you languish over the many years you spent trying to pursue that dream! All this while, time, opportunities and life passed you by. Hope can lead to disappointment -- realize this. When all hopes are dashed, what have you got?
Path To Healing
Healing is a complex matter. Who has never felt the pains of suffering, be it physical, mental, emotional, material and spiritual
Even our dear Mother Earth is in desperate need of healing from the abuse inflicted upon her through man™s recklessness, negligence and lack of respect.
There are avenues open to healing. One may choose to spend time with a professional, seek comfort from related groups,from family, but always, healing has to start with oneself, from within that deep well of strength .
It takes determination to face up to your dilemma, but, ultimately, it is most rewarding to regain your personal power, self-confidence, learn to love yourself and enjoy that inner peace and calm.
It is important to acknowledge the pain, to recognize the cause, to be able to integrate the fragmented pieces and be willing to take it to the next step to be œwhole?again. Then, you will be able to share love and peace with the world once again.
Healing extends beyond the physical state -- when the pain is so deep, the spirit, the soul also bear the pain. It comes in hauntingly in the dark of the night , it fills a once loving heart with venom, it could ravage a once healthy mind and body. Beneath a once beautiful and graceful soul is the mask of vengeance. Venom for venom.
Blocks To Healing
Sometimes, the path to healing is full of potholes. Indeed, the path is covered with blocks, where healing can not be accomplished,it's almost out of reach.
Impediments on the path:
denial, apathy, self-absorption and self-indulgence, addiction, putting up walls and barriers, busy-bee syndrome, compartmentalizing, isolation,withdrawal from society, cynicism, loss of faith, trust and compassion, self-pity, poor"me syndrome, anger, fear of getting hurt again, martyr complex, neurosis or psychosis, aggressive / oppressive behaviour, confrontational attitude guilt complex, resignation, loss of motivation.
Sometimes, we hurt those we love most deeply, likewise, we bear the pain they cause. Time is a great healer, but don't take the painfully slow route and miss out on what the world holds for you. Let life flow for you and with you.
