A long held belief based on a perceived reality that is rooted in a diminishing view of yourself or others probably is not serving you. Today is a good day to let go of one of them. Today is a great day to let go of one of them-if it's a secret grudge you've been harboring for years. Particularly if that person is YOU.

Healing is not healed. Numbed is not healed. Healing takes time. Healing takes patience. Healing takes love. Healing sometimes triggers anger or sadness or sorrow or guilt or regret. Long suppressed. Long unaddressed So we make up that healing is wrong, useless and to be avoided And we head back to numbing And look for love and connection With the numbed and suppressed, unaddressed and repressed... Give space for the damage Give space for the healing Let the healing begin and begin and begin.........

And most importantly-When was the last time YOU reviewed/upgraded your standards/expectations rules-and took a look at the surrounding impact/checked in?(Hint-most people live from rules/standards/expectations created from reactions/perceptions formed around the age of six)Might be time for a review/upgrade........
