Then Comes the Healing

Hurt. Sadness. Anger. Disappointment. Frustration. Pain.

What makes all of these bearable as a human beings? How do we get through each day, then come to see, months later, that we are not in as much pain as we thought we were. We find we are less sad and smile more often. The anger had drained slowly out of us without feeling it happen.

Healing. That is what happened. And time... it is really the only way to get there.

I know when you are in that moment when something happened to you to cause those negative emotions, we can't see the future but it will diminish slowly and we will slowly forget the pain.

What we need to do to make it complete is to let it go. That is where a lot of us have the problem. We hold on to it, for whatever reason, but in the end, it destroys us, not the person or the event that hurt us, in the first place. They are gone and we are forgotten by them but we are still here.

How to let go? I think it is different for each of us and we need to find the way to do it to be whole and at peace with ourselves.

I think talking it out helps for some. Crying helps for others and yet for the other bunch, it is just deciding to let go and doing it. Then there are those who write about it. I do write a lot to let things go and I find that as I look back, I feel free and the weight has come off. It's really a good thing happening because what it does is to allow more love to come in.

Say it slowly to yourself.

I am ok.

I will be fine.

I will smile brightly one day and know that life goes on.

Healing. What a wonderful thing!
