Peaceful Mind

I feel my soul has evolved

It has matured and grown

After I have overcome my fears

After I have let go of the hatred in my being.

Forgiveness is indeed possible!

Forgiving oneself and the people who hurt you

But It would only require time

Time away and time to heal

It is never easy

But is worth a try.

One’s effort to help oneself is the next important thing

Train the mind and teach it to be open to forgiveness

Feed your mind with positivity

Be open to certain wisdom that aid in one’s survival

Feed your soul with prayers and hope

Be accepting of the realities of life

and that of being alive,

and being human.

We all make mistakes. We are not perfect.

So do not be too harsh on yourself or with others.

Take it all in. All emotions that you feel.

They are all but indications that you are alive!

Life is short. Life is delicate. It is frail.

Let us do our best not to spend our moments

worrying, being afraid, or feeling hatred.

We have to strive to see the light.

To seek enlightenment and be better and happy.

Yes, we often hear these lessons

And it is easier said than done

But believe me, what they say is true

Human kindness truly work.

Go through the process

Be brave and strong

Hold on to those lessons…

Embracing Me

May the prayers embrace me tonight

As I lay myself down to sleep

May the prayers envelope me

 With Light and Strength that will never leave

May wisdom and courage descend upon me

Change my mind and heart into a better being

May I conquer hatred and the rest of my emotions

Instead be more understanding and forgiving

Be loving and human

Even to the person who has wounded my spirit

A Prayer Request

A few more days and I am plunging into an abyss!

I have been preparing for over a year now.

Hopefully I will not drown.

Hoping I will do just fine.

Can you please whisper a prayer for me as you read this?

That this woman may succeed in finding healing and peace.

Amen…

Emotions

Needing all the courage and strength

To look at his face

To hear his voice again

And listen to every word he utters

His presence is a reminder of the dark past I despise

The place I never want to see again

The time I never want to be in again.

Needs a lot of kindness

To be human again

To learn how to forgive

To give peace a chance

The head says go

The heart says no

Emotions beaten up

It is time to give up

Healing Wounds

I checked my old wound that has been hurting for years.

I think it has healed. It does not look fresh at all.

When I looked at the old photos, I do not feel trembling anymore due to strong emotions. My heart is not pounding hard at all. My breathing is steady. My soul longs for reconciliation, for forgiveness and love.

I feel the time has come… I am ready to face it anytime. The signs have been around. There are days when I feel so courageous. Maybe I have finally let go of the past.

It is true that TIME heals all wounds. No matter how long it takes. Maybe it is the natural course of life. Healing happens when you also remove yourself in the hurting situation. You distance yourself from it.  Distance, time, and hard work all help in the process of healing. Hard work for me is feeding your thoughts, your soul, your being with positivity, inspiration, understanding of self, others, humans, and LIFE. Then you will just know that you are okay. You are healed. You have moved on. And being scared, mad, afraid, is just a waste of your happy and beautiful life.

So if you are hurting or battling with something, know that you will be fine. You will wake up to a sunny day!

Stone Heart

How can someone say I hate your voice, I hate your face, and I can never stand your mere presence? The head tells you to do what should be done but the heart shuts down. The spirit tries though.

How can forgiveness and acceptance happen? When does it start? How does it happen?

A Better Day

Today is exactly a year since I was emotionally liberated. So I lit up a candle in our little altar to give thanks. It was a beginning of a new day, a new hope, a new life, and a time for healing. I know I am almost there. I can feel it in my mind, my heart, and my soul.  Forgiving myself and the person who might have caused me trouble. It is not easy to forget but it is possible to forgive… in time. So never shut the door. Keep believing in the good. You have to help yourself. Train your mind. Pray to God. There is always time for everything. Just hang in there. “Let the storm rage on” (line from the Song, Frozen). Then you will wake up to a better day.

To My Heart and Mind

There is no way I can run away from you

You are like a shadow

Your life is intertwined with mine

There is no hiding, no escaping

Some things are just beyond control

Oh my stubborn mind, please cooperate

Open yourself up and be more accepting

Oh my frightened heart, you have to calm down

Open yourself up and be more forgiving

Love is the answer, let it flow from within

One step at a time

Believe you will get there!
