It’s Thanksgiving time in the USA.
Time to eat, be with family, eat, be with family and give thanks.
Maybe this is a sad time for you.
Maybe it’s a confusing time for you.
It’s probably a painful time for you.
And, where does the pain come from?
Most of the time, it’s my experience in working with thousands over the past two plus decades, that fear resides under your pain.
You are afraid of losing; of losing your family, losing your home, losing your spouse, losing your pride, losing your dignity, losing your respect, losing what you have worked so hard for, losing your dreams, losing your hopes, losing your health, losing sleep, losing your job, losing to another person….
The list could go on. You perhaps can fill in more of the blanks.
And, if you’ve been through infidelity you know that the list of fears is long… very long. It seems as if EVERYTHING is at stake with infidelity. You feel like you stand on the edge of losing it all.
How do you get through this? How do others get through this? (And yes, they do… all the time. They emerge on the other side better, brighter, richer, more peaceful, more confident, more able to handle life.)
How are you able to use the mantra “This too Shall Pass” so that it sticks in your soul and gives hope?
What gets you there? Where do you start?
Can you give thanks on this day?
Please know this: Underneath all the fears, all the pain, all the confusion all the garbage you wade through at this moment is YOU.
Yes, YOU are there. YOU, with your beauty, (although you may not think it.) YOU with your strength (some days you wonder.) You with your power to love and give (maybe not feeling like that now.) YOU with your capacity to dream (although is seems the dream fades.) YOU with your warmth to touch others (although you may not feel like touching.)
Yes, there is YOU. And no one can EVER take that YOU away. That YOU will NEVER be lost!
Do you know that YOU now? Can you welcome beneath your anguish and fear that YOU? Can you reach out and welcome that YOU that resides at the core of your being? Can you feel that power of that YOU? Yes, feel it now! Can you sense the overwhelming capacity of that YOU to love? Can you feel the peace of that YOU? Can that YOU express to you his/her fearlessness? His/her power? His/her everlastingness?
I want that for you! I want that for me! I want everyone who reads my material, who talks to me, who intersects my life to feel IT, to know IT, to embrace IT.
Can you know YOU this day? Can you give thanks for YOU today?
Have no fear, you are on the way. Infidelity and the challenges of life awaken the YOU in you and you come to know how badly you want YOU.
Thanksgiving peace!
