Yes, I am. How? By showing up in each moment.
So many excellent responses here! Re-member in, in-spiring, daily-ness, acceptance of help…… I especially appreciate Michael’s and the Nike ad for the how of this question: Just Do It!
I want to be reconciled with my daughter.
As of my writing there are nine reflection and each one holds something of what I agree with. It will be interesting to see other responses at the end of the day. I don’t think we have any “last times” of anything in our lives. Be it anger, fear, cheer, love, etc., it all comes around again albeit in a different form or intensity. If we responded to our feelings in a way that brought peace, we can do it again. If we found our response less satisfactory we will have a...
As of my writing there are nine reflection and each one holds something of what I agree with. It will be interesting to see other responses at the end of the day. I don’t think we have any “last times” of anything in our lives. Be it anger, fear, cheer, love, etc., it all comes around again albeit in a different form or intensity. If we responded to our feelings in a way that brought peace, we can do it again. If we found our response less satisfactory we will have an opportunity to do it differently.
By maintaining awareness.
My current limiting belief is that I will never get this Handel jigg under my fingers proficiently! I have been working on it 6 months and still stumbling around!!
Both. And. Life just IS.
Pay attention to your gut feeling.
Each person who has responded thus far, and those who have yet to write will contribute to my re-membering as I go about my day. Now as I read and just before sleeping for the night and throughout the day as I recall who has written what. Re-membering.
I agree with you, Kevin.
I think some days are like that, maybe they even serve a good purpose. I find them disconcerting. Fortunately, those times are like the Bible passage “…and it came to pass..”. Shalom. Deb
Me, too.
Ginni, I know how you feel. I used to feel the same way. I read a quote that I found helpful, perhaps you will, too. About the past, let go or be dragged. I wish you the best of success and peace as you navigate your days. Deb
There is a grook by Piet Hien that says “Problems worthy of attack, prove their worth by hitting back!” I take that to mean we don’t do something once for all time, be it forgiving, loving, consistency, etc. As Christina put it, keep tryin’.
Thank you for your kind prayers, Palm. I appreciate it.
Yeah, six years after my divorce, it still stings to have not kept our covenant, but I am loved by a wonderful man now and it is good to love again. You will, too, at some point. It is said that after amputation, the person still feels phantom pain from the missing limb. Divorce is like an amputation. Blessings of comfort and cheer, Antoinette!????????
Well done, Antoinette! Wounds heal slowly and reactions sometimes prevail, but you are working on facilitating healing and responding instead of reacting! There still will be residual discomfort, but you have stood tall, squared your shoulders, faced the challenge and lived to tell the story with grace and humor! Well done!!
Kelly, I am glad you are here! I understand what you are struggling with. Have you looked into Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University? You might find it helpful as it enables you to control money rather than thoughts of it controlling you. I lived for a period of time below the poverty level and know how it feels to have very little money. That is when the practice of gratefulness was helpful. When I counted out what I did have, I remembered I had enough. Mary Poppins says ...

Well stated, Renee! I agree with you.
Beautifully stated, Ose!
