SHAME & GUILT.

So, what about those things we are most ashamed of. Those mistakes we’ve made.

Surely this gut wrenching pull from inside to punish ourselves must be followed. Right.

Well let’s get straight to the truth shall we ~ You see, here’s the thing…

The universe loves ItSelf.

Life loves Life and You are Life.

So you see...

There is actually no forgiving to do.

Forgiveness is already done.

It is automatic ~ Instantaneous.

This obviously doesn’t mean that you should go around creating havoc, hurting people, stealing or maiming.

It means that those things we did, those past situations that we’re ashamed of, and/or regret ~ we did from the level of consciousness we were living from at that time, so we couldn’t do any differently than what we actually did (no matter what the mind tries to tell us).

You see.

Often when returning to the heart space, it can bring up a whole host of emotion including shame, regret or guilt for things we wish we’d rather not done or wish we’d done differently.

However, that shame we feel is not a punishment but an in~vitation to see deeper into the truth of who we are and to dissolve the pain and conditioned belief that we are anything less than completely worthy.

The Universe, just like the most loving parent, stands back allowing us to find our own feet on this journey, knowing that that is the most loving way for us to grow into the truth of the heart.

The Universe is the equivalent of the most loving parent imaginable and so forgiveness is already done. Let’s put it this way... Do loving parents only feed, clothe and protect their children when they are perfect and haven’t been disobedient or rebellious ~ Of course not, if that were the case the streets would be filled with malnourished and unclothed children.

The truth about who we are beyond the waves of guilt and shame can collapse in an instant once we see this truth or it may take what appears to be a process. Either way being open to this truth and compassionate toward ourselves during this unravelling is key.

And then we see that there is only now.
