Love-Intelligence Governs Your Universe

Some of the most powerful lessons are also some of the most painful experiences.  It is out of the pain, that forgiveness is embraced.  Most people think that forgiveness has something to do with the other person.  Others think that to forgive oneself will provide the healing balm to extinguish the pain.  Suppose, we turn our attention to the lesson versus the pain.  Suppose we consider that whenever we have caused tears in another, it has never been with malice.  Yet, when we are crying, the thought is that the other person did something wrong or we did something wrong and hence, forgiveness is necessary.  By realizing and focusing on the lack of malice, it becomes easier to move toward the lesson.  Forgiveness is not necessary in the classroom.  However, it does require that the student be mature enough to be taught and take correction without having their feelings hurt.

I have been contemplating the beauty of the sunrises and sunsets. That each one is different and beautiful. That, I have never thought about moving a cloud to a different place in the sky to make that sunrise/sunset more beautiful. What God created, is beautiful on its own, without my help or suggestion. So it is with humans. God created all of us immaculately beautiful. No amount of clothing, make-up, hair styling or surgery will improve my/our inherent beauty. It is up to me to see it, without judgment or suggestion. My challenge to myself is to see the beauty in life, and refuse the judgment. Having said that, I can see where I came up short today. The practice continues......
