Pack the Bags and Move On |
Posted: May 30, 2014 |
Pack the Bags and Move On The childhood, the marriage, the boyfriend, the job, the abuse….the past and all its pain. It’s over. You can say “I know”, but your actions say something different. I still see a lot of unpacked bags… I may not be aware of what your “now” is like, but I’m guessing there’s still some past drama presenting in your present life. Just cuz it’s over doesn’t mean we let go… Been there. Still there, sometimes, to be perfectly honest. More often than I like. And when I’m miserable in my now, it’s tough to envision a bright future. I waste a LOT of my now time, ruminating about the past. The ego lies to us and tells us this being miserable is as good as it’s gonna get. But know this: for the ego to survive, the past must stay alive. A little secret if you need help moving on…realize that what happened wasn’t happening TO you; it was happening FOR you. It was the perfect experience to bring you to your Divine Here. The Universe keeps bringing us into the now, the present, patiently waiting until the day comes we’re ready for it. The ego? It wants you to feel hurt, angry, abused, etc. It tells you “this was unforgiveable” or “you’ll never change.” THAT’S HOW IT KEEPS THE POWER. The pain isn’t in the past; it’s in your perception that it can still hurt you. We gave the situation meaning; we gave it power. And we still give it power. I can’t get those hours back I spent in my past, but I can give you a lesson I learned from them. Simple words, said with love: See it – yes, feel it- you bet, but if you want to heal it, stop re-living and stop regretting. Accept it. Accepting it happened is NOT the same as reliving it. Accepting it does not condone or approve of it. Accepting it all [including your part] releases regret and restores power. It’s over. God knows all about it. She wants you to move on. Holding on doesn’t take strength. Letting go and moving on sure does, though…. Like to see a little magic in your life? Ask me about my new “Alpha-cadabra Program” designed with letting go in mind… Annie
