I spent last weekend at a woman’s retreat hosted by Mary Morrissey and Rickie Byars Beckwith…and one of the things I discovered for myself was that sometimes we put someone or something up on such a high pedestal that no one or nothing can quite live up to that memory! Not that remembering what is good and also great about a past experience or person is a bad thing. This is quite uplifting and comforting…such as in times of a loved one’s passing. We remember the great things about that person and cherish them. We re-experience those precious moments shared and hold those memories close to our heart. No longer are we focused or tangled up with the painful circumstances or unpleasantries of that relationship…we basically put the remembered one up on that pedestal and there they remain.
As I said, that’s not necessarily a bad thing…but what I discovered this past weekend was kinda liberating for me personally. You see, I only in recent years been aware of the fact that I have been “protecting” my heart…protecting it and hiding it from the pain of a perceived loss of “unconditional love” from somewhere in the past. A friend of mine pulled me aside and asked me the question “why are you hiding your heart?” Not only did I not know the answer to his question, I wasn’t even aware of the fact that I was doing this!!! Ha…isn’t that a kick in the pants knowing that’s exactly what I would like to have and give to others – unconditional love – and that if my heart is in fact closed and hidden, then that is impossible to achieve!!! And why is that so hard for me to attain? accept? or give?
Now let me explain before I may be misunderstood here… I consider myself to be a kind and loving person (at least in theory!) and strive to be just that in all circumstances (double haha)…but so often I get caught up in being impatient, annoyed and irritated, and in arguments with the people I love most! so what gives? I want exactly the opposite and my intentions are something completely not in alignment with those low-level feelings, so why do I get swept away in it and carry on that way???
This exact dynamic has been high on my list to explore and resolve…for pretty much the past three years. And here is what I discovered this past weekend. Forgiveness and a level of new awareness and understanding!!! In the first place, forgiving myself for not knowing what I was doing…and forgiving myself for allowing something (or someone) to be put up on such a high pedestal that nothing or no one else can quite compare!!! You see, if I am always comparing something to something else (and that something else or someone else could be now considered superhuman with how high I have placed them up on a perch!) – even if it is all true and I perhaps have had the best and most indescribable essence of unconditional love somewhere in my past, why let that prevent me from experiencing just that in my current circumstances and current relationships? What’s up with that???
My “aha” awareness on this subject is that I can use that memory or past experience (even if it is made up and larger than life) and bring that into my current relationships, right here and right now!!! Who wouldn’t want to have more love? If I have had the best…then why not re-create that and enjoy that experience in ALL of my present relationships?!!! It’s actually my responsibility to share that with everyone I come in contact with…to lead by example and share my heart and love “unconditionally” and without any holding back!
Now that may be easier said than done…but I’m not going to enter into an agreement with that! I am going to step forward and try do my best in sharing that “special love” (a love that perhaps seems like a distant memory and maybe even like a romantic fairy-tale) with others! But to do so, I will have to allow that which binds and hides my own heart, to be set free and allowed to love freely in order to do so… (see my previous post for more on that…) I will have to acknowledge that “nothing lasts forever” – unless of course you pass it forward and incorporate that love and experience within your current relationships…
Does any of this resonate with you?
How are you holding back, and is your heart held in bondage preventing it to be shared freely?
Are there areas in your relationships where this is apparent, or ways you can see any of this within your life?
I would like to know if any of this rings true for anyone else…
Please feel share your comments with me!!!
I?m amazed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog that?s both equally educative
and amusing, and let me tell you, you’ve hit the nail on the
head. The issue is something which too few people are speaking
intelligently about. Now i’m very happy that I came across this in my search for
something regarding this.
Do you mind if I quote a couple of your posts as long as I provide credit and sources back to your webpage?
My website is in the very same area of interest as yours and my
visitors would truly benefit from some of the information you
present here. Please let me know if this okay with you. Regards!
Great article and straight to the point. I am not sure if this is in fact the best place to ask but do you people have any ideea where to hire some professional writers?
Thanks in advance :)
I was excited to uncover this page. I want to to thank you for your time due to this wonderful read!!
I definitely enjoyed every little bit of it and i also have you book marked
to see new information on your blog.
Good day! Do you know if they make any plugins to help
with Search Engine Optimization? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good results.
If you know of any please share. Appreciate it!
When someone writes an article he/she retains the thought of a
user in his/her brain that how a user can understand it.
Therefdore that’s why this article is outstdanding.
Thanks!
Undeniably consider that that you said. Your favorite justification seemed to be at
the net the easiest factor to be mindful of. I say to you,
I certainly get annoyed even as people consider concerns that they plainly don’t understand about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the highest and
also outlined out the whole thing without having side effect , other people could take a signal.
Will probably be again to get more. Thanks

Hi every one, here every person is sharing these kinds of familiarity, thus it’s pleasant to read
this webpage, and I used to pay a quick visit this weblog everyday.
Roulette game is one such game that has gained enough
popularity as a online casino game as such today the famous music
legend Simon Cowel is planning to launch a Roulette based game show for
common audience. The games include mainly online casino games like Blackjack,
Roulette etc. It is not an easy task to occupy the draft
ness in playing such games but rather requires close observation over every move included in the
game. The new roulette show hopes to see new millionaires in the coming days through
the course of the game. Gone are the days when distance
education meant poorly printed learning material being delivered to your postal
address. Department of Education has a list of accrediting
agencies that it recognizes as “reliable authorities” concerning the quality of education disbursed by institutions of higher learning.
When choosing a distance learning program, you should select one that best suits your current lifestyle.
The best hookup destinations are going to depend on upon what it is that you are scanning for.
I don’t know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everyone else encountering issues with your blog.
It appears like some of the text in your content are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them
too? This might be a problem with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen before.
Kudos
