Morning Drinks

Dear friends,

I want to share something that felt very sweet this morning and that I am thankful for.

A message came to me on Wednesday to start a 21 day forgiveness practice. I researched different ways and decided on a path to help me start. I knew that once I started it would be made clear to me each day how to proceed. I knew that my intuition would have to be fueled by a bit of discipline for me to last the 21 days.
The first day went fine, I self recorded and listened (sometimes I do better listening than reading) to practices from two different sources to see what led me the best.
One was the Hawaiian tradition of “making it right” and the other was a forgiveness prayer that I received in a recent akashic records training.

I felt good but as the practice took me deeper into my emotional body it felt like I was going to need a lot of trust to fully receive the gift of my forgiveness practice. I decided to do a little each day and see what happens.

This morning I woke up and started to make my drinks and a thought came “turn on the radio”. I hardly ever turn on the radio in the morning because morning is most often my time to meditate and do my practices before my day begins and the jingle jangle of news disturbs me.
I was walking past the radio and I flipped it on, even though my thoughts were saying, you’ll be sorry.
A show called StoryCorps was on and they had already started a story about a family’s process of forgiveness of a man in prison who had shot their son/brother/relative when he was fourteen. They were talking about all the ways forgiveness had impacted their lives.
I was 3/4 of the way through before I remembered that this was the second day of my forgiveness practice. I had completely forgotten.

Thank you to what guides me, even if sometimes I don’t see your hands. May I always see your light, smell your perfume, hear your music, and bless the day when I see you “face to face”.

Two are half gone and there was also water 💦
