BEING BORN AGAIN

I choose to let go of past hurts and offenses.  I acknowledge that damage was done and has rippled through my life.  I allow myself to feel the sadness of regret and the pain of unmet expectations and needs.  It was what it was, unintentional neglect and wounding that was fostered by the disease of addiction and generational hurting passed down unconsciously from one ancestor to the next.  I release myself from the imprisonment of resentment and sadness, as well as the need to continue to  pass it on to others.

Today I resolve to live in the present, recognizing the spaciousness within my being to create healing, forgiveness, and peace.  A day of possibility and promise dawns.
