I'm back from my Transformational Thinking retreat--I am so fortunate to have found this place! It is another piece in the puzzle, fitting in with all the other work I have been doing on me. It is really amazing how all of the messages, while from different perspectives, all lead to the same place of healing, of letting go.
I have a new sense of how things that happen are meant to happen...karma, or destiny, or some bigger plan we can't see. And I know that I am right where I am supposed to be, right now.
I big take-away thought: Suffering is not caused by an event, but by our RESISTENCE to the event. It is from within us.
I think the last bits of denial are finally melting away, and acceptence is taking its place. It is not a bad thing. And I recognize that things are always in a state of change.
Now, to be more grounded, I had a cousin and his wife drop in soon after I got home. Supportive, full of love. They were leaving as the kids got home--telling me about all of their adventures, while S12 hugged me time and again, happy to be home and with me to share it with. He definitely sees it as "visiting" his father...wish it wasn't so hard on him.
I wanted to drop in here and share a bit, but I am still processing all of the good stuff, too, so will probably write more during the week.
