Today's letter spoke loud and clear to me....it sounds great - but I don't comprehend HOW you "empty your heart of past associations, past grief, past holdings"? You don't have to work through them, confront them, learn from them first :?: I can look out another window and see a brighter future, but the hurt of the last 21 years doesn't disappear. Am I hanging on to it - "like a comforting old bathrobe" :?: I want to move on, but feel damaged - like a car crumpled in an accident. Not totaled, but not "good as new" either. Suggestions?
Robert's post on moving past pain
Dearest Robert,
Your words come at such a moment for me. I am helping someone deal with many
hurts from childhood & issues that taint his daily life with woe & grief. It
is best to think love, give love, BE love. This is all we can really do to
heal ourselves, or help others heal themselves. It is what we came from,
what we are made of, & what we will return to. As God is in all of us, so is
His love...our life-force, purpose.
Us.
Blessings.

Dear Lauri,
I think that the only way to empty your heart is to decide to do it. Desire to do it. I didn't believe that it really depends on our will, but from my personal experience I can tell you that it does. For many years I've suffered from depression and I got rid of it only when I decided I didn't want it anymore. I can feel it coming, with the usual old thought patterns, and I just say I don't want it anymore, ask God to help me and give my attention to something else. - If you keep going through them to learn from them, you just give them energy. That's not what God wants from us, not anymore. We are free now to go on. Every day is a clean slate as God says in Heavenletters.
Do not accumulate the experiences of a day and hold them over until the next one or the next year or the next twenty. Let your days go. They are pages in a book. You already read them. Now go to a new page. Let the other days flutter away. They are no longer. Only they made an impression on you. Do not bookmark them for safe keeping. Do not keep them at all. They are confetti. (HEAVEN #2081 Today July 17, 2006)
