On Valentine’s Day, I find myself steeped in a lesson on love that is all too familiar. I recognize the same old feelings. I am exhibiting the same old fears and patterns. The sense of frustration I know very well, and I have cried these same tears before. It may wear a new face and pair of pants, but it is a repeated lesson that I am still desperately trying to learn. At least I can say, however, that I have grown much since the last go-round. The awareness gained is apparent. It is reflected in the understanding that I can now show toward another, and the compassion that I can now show toward myself.
My soul’s way forward at this time is not yet clear. I may have written a blog called Rising In Love a few weeks back; but today, the human in me feels like she is stumbling. Don’t worry though; I will rise in love again, because that is my choice. Well wishes, then, are not necessary. But if you feel compelled to sympathize, a simple nod of “I hear where you are” is enough. At least I can say that I have grown much since the last go-round. The awareness gained is apparent. It is reflected in the understanding that I can now show toward another, and the compassion that I can now show toward myself.
