Up After Every Fall
(Full Moon in Aries.)
If we do not wish to love and serve all those who we encounter, there is yet work to be done.
It is not difficult work, and it is.
You must first love yourself. This is not something you can just read about. It is learned through ardent practice and tribulation.
You start to understand the perfection of it all — most of all, your checkered past, and all the actors and actresses who caused you pain.
You can’t stay stuck in blame. You will suffer indefinitely for it.
Learning to love the unlovable — that is the work of every human being who wishes to know abiding peace.
You’ve got all the time in the world and none — at the same time.
Yes, that “thing” hurt and caused unjust harm. Guess what? It was also a gift.
A springboard for you to practice and open your heart. And to know about compassion.
Without dark, there can be no light.
It is a razor’s path to love. That’s good news. Mistakes are corrected quickly.
The key: up you get after every fall, and keep going. Nothing else matters as much as this. 🙏🏻
