Blessed are you, standing at night’s edge,
the festival of grief and somehow triumph.
the end draws near,
and yet, something new is beginning.

Grace doesn’t add up
it sits with betrayers,
washes the feet of back backstabbers,
breaks bread with the disloyal,
and shares a cup with double-dealers

Blessed are you when guarantees slip,
as love shows becomes costly,
asking for everything and promising nothing.

May you see beauty in this sacrifice,
love that begs us to keep loving,
even as hearts are broken.

Blessed are you, remembering,
when forgetting feels easier,
that in this undoing,
the world is being remade.

Christ has Died, Christ is Risen,
Christ will come again.

Words taken from Kate Bowler and Jessica Richie.

We’re spiritual beings living in a human body, and even though our packaging seems different, we’re very much the same.

Learning to accept the things that we perceive as wrong can be a difficult task. Many of us were brought up to accept that it is normal to feel guilty about our actions, and that by doing so, we will make everything seem okay within ourselves. Even though we might feel that we need to make up for the choices we have made, it is much more important for us to learn how to deal with them in a healthy and positive way, such as through forgiveness and understanding.

When we can look back at our past and really assess what has happened, we begin to realize that there are many dimensions to our actions. While feeling guilty might assuage our feelings at first, it is only a short-term solution. It is all too ironic that being hard on ourselves is the easy way out. If we truly are able to gaze upon our lives through the lens of compassion, we will be able to see that there is more to what we do and have done than we realize. Perhaps we were simply trying to protect ourselves or others and did the best we could at the time, or maybe we thought we had no other recourse and chose a solution in the heat of the moment. Once we understand that dwelling in our negative feelings will only make us feel worse, we will come to recognize that it is only through forgiving ourselves that we can transform our feelings and truly heal any resentment we have about our past.

Giving ourselves permission to feel at peace with our past actions is one of the most positive steps we can take toward living a life free from regrets, disappointments, and guilt. The more we are able to remind ourselves that the true path to a peaceful mind and heart is through acceptance of every part of our lives and actions, the more harmony and inner joy we will experience in all aspects of our lives.

“Beware of Fear.” (The headmistress said) It took me many years to understand the power and importance of that observation. Fear sometimes stops you from doing stupid things. But it can also stop you from doing creative or exciting or experimental things. It can cloud your judgement of others, and lead to all kinds of evil. The control and understanding of our personal fears is one of the most important undertakings of our lives. - Helen Mirren

There is a purpose to our lives, even if it is sometimes hidden from us, and even if the biggest turning points and heartbreaks only make sense as we look back, not as we are experiencing them. So we might as well live life as if, as the poet Rumi put it, “Everything is rigged in our favor.”
