Light and Love

Running from some feelings today. They were there in my dreams last night, and still there when I woke from sleep. They followed me in the car, and then round and round the track while I exercised. They showed up when I tried to eat, when I sat down on the couch, and they are hanging like a heavy weight against my chest right now as I type. There is a hole in my body where it hurts. I name it loss. And it seems the losses in my life, around my life, are haunting me today. Or perhaps keeping me company.

Is this the pity party that I am supposed to attend, but not stay too long? I have over stayed my welcome, I fear.

Since running from them has not helped, I am trying to sit with them all. I am trying to honor them during this holy, precious moment of time, holding them close, whispering hello and welcome, and then goodbye, as I gently release them to the Light and Love of this world.

And so it shall be.

Namaste
