Where do I diminish my love? Well, like I said, I brought the past into the present. That left no room for a miracle. Where do I accentuate it? Living in the past, I had no time to accentuate love. The holidays can help us to pierce layers of pain, so the love can shine but we have to let go of the past. Without that, there is no room for the present. To get to the root of the pain, I had to let go of the fear and allow myself to feel the pain.
I have allowed Drama Queen to take part in my life a great deal. We all know her, sad to say. We like having her around. She seems to make our life more interesting. But it’s not real; it is not Truth.
I would love to share some thoughts with you. To ponder, the mind has to quiet down and listen to the still, small voice within. You have to ask a question and wait to hear the answer. The answer might take time, but with practice, the response will come quicker.
Years ago while I was meditating, I asked myself the question, “What is the next thing I have to work on?” I had lots of ideas of what was going to come up from the still small voice but never expected what did come up. I heard, “You should learn to ponder and not react.” Well, that was a shock! Of course, Screaming Mimi yelled, “That is not what I want to work on!” However, I knew in my heart I had received the truth.
