Love them all. Love all of them. If there is a single exception in your heart right now, shine the light of your loving consciousness there. Heal the wound your painful experience left behind. Heal the wound and love the person. See your own divine radiance reflected in their face. Transform the cycle of pain to a cycle of love.
If even one person living in a war-torn country is capable of forgiving those who murdered, raped and killed their families, how can you withhold forgiveness? On this Easter day, forgive the injustices you have suffered, just as you are forgiven injustices you have inflicted. None are guiltless. All have inflicted pain, whether intentionally or unintentionally. And all are worthy of forgiveness.
In truth, the pain itself was necessary to empower your transcendence. Pain is the organic matter, the corpse that is composted, digested and broken down to provide fertile soil for your soul’s transfiguration.
Each individual path is unique. Each is exquisite in its beauty and perfection. The path is one of epiphany, as pain and sorrow are transmuted to joy in the sacred space of contemplation.
All of life is a series of puzzles. Ignore the puzzle and it will not solve itself. Glance at it briefly for a few minutes in the car or or during a hike, and you will eventually put pieces into place over time. Actively create space to sit with the puzzle for an extended period of time, tenderly contemplating each piece, feeling its edges, analyzing its shape in relation to other pieces of the puzzle, taking note of nuances in its shade, color and texture, and you will delight in the image that seemingly magically takes shape.
You are not meant to solve these puzzles alone. Seek connection with your human family. Look to nature for patterns. Feel the rhythm of the sun, moon, planets and stars. Engage in ceremony with plant medicines. Call upon angels and spirit guides who are ready and waiting to assist you, even in this very moment. Ask Jesus, Buddha, Allah, Krishna, or any deity you regard as holy to show you the way.
You are loved beyond measure, precious soul. And your life is one of immeasurable value. The very tools used to create the cosmos are at your disposal. All you need to do is ask.
