“Fix My Life!” Blog #228
If others hurt me, how do I talk to them?
Am I choosing drama to get through my life daily?
Why should I be the one to set things straight?
For most people, it is hard to understand that forgiveness is LOVE at it highest form. When
a person is a child, the naughty things that take place are forgiven right away. However
we act, whatever we say and whatever we do, as little people we are usually talked to,
disciplined and forgiven. After all, tiny people, children, are looking for answers in those
who care for them. Parents do not usually hold grudges. They carefully find a way to
teach their child the truth. We are ALL children of God. We need help daily.
I AM A CHILD OF GOD. GOD is waiting for me to learn my lessons daily.
Sometimes we wake up daily and the things we deal with seem even harder. Why is that?
When I can finally accept the “school of life” I go to is every day lessons that are given to
me to learn from. Whether it be my family, my friends, or any situation I encounter that
brings difficulty, this is because I AM THE ONE TO BE LEARNING. Where ever I am in life right
now, whoever I am living with right now, I have major lessons to learn. Perhaps there is a
family member who is emotionally abusive, perhaps there is a friend who has said hurtful
comments, perhaps there is a spouse who stands apart in darkness. These are the lessons
each of us is given with choices we have initially made. It is imperative I see my role in
learning my own daily lessons with a forgiving heart. When there is gossip, anger, hatred,
this is powerful stuff. Consequences come with every word I speak, every action I do and
every decision I make. There will always be people in life who refuse to to let go of the past.
People who refuse to grow and thrive on the daily drama of life.
I, for one, make a decision to let go of this unhealthy way of living. I seek healthy
relationships. My own life puts me in a giant classroom with prayer to start and guide my
day. I go forward and decide to judge no one because I am filling my heart with
forgiveness. Therefore I let go of all anger today.
I wrote a poem that fits this moment precisely.
“ANGER”
Anger swells in the heart of thee, buried inside a big Black Sea,
Dismal dark voices, rich with menace give few choices where anger is endless.
On goes Anger in a deadly spin, Mr. Anger assures a wicked win -
takes over with rampant rage. brings in bruising blame, demanding center stage.
Never ready to depart, destroying all goodness in a loving peaceful heart.
Hiding out is quiet, forgiving self, sitting high on a dusty shelf.
At once is felt a timeless prayer, always waiting patiently there.
Suddenly sweeping in comes Jesus Angelic Diadem
crushing Angers deadly sin, a forlorn face did not give in!
This powerful force now gives chase, self love and forgiveness are back,
Destroying all anger in its track. Gone in a puff of smoke, this soul is now set free
Angels bravely sing to Thee, Herein lies the light of Christ’s Humility.
