One thing I am learning is that I am personally full of resentments. All sorts. They are inevitable I guess, or at least have been up till this point. As I admit them and work toward amending them they become fewer and fewer. There are some things, however, that are difficult to surrender to. Some cuts run deeper than others...but I have come to understand that I must forgive and I must purvey goodwill to all I come into contact with. That is the key to a happy and healthy me. In being handed this knowledge, I have come to realize that I need to develop an effective method of praying for anyone at any moment. Sort of an emergency response to resentment and the insanity that will assuredly follow.
MY PRAYER FOR THOSE I FEEL HAVE DONE ME HARM
I pray that you reach your bottom. I pray that you find it sooner rather than later. Like me, life has given you your share of pain. It is this pain you carry that causes you great harm. Your inability to acknowledge what you carry makes it possible for you to do harm to those around you. You do this without insight and without empathy. You are at times unable to feel and I am sorry for you. I am sorry that you are only living a half-life. I want desperately to help you...to show you some of the things I have learned...but your adherence to the old ways prevents your humility in an absolute sense. The pity I used to horde for myself is now yours. That is why I pray for you to reach your bottom...so you may have the ability and choice to build anew if you so desire. I pray that the world will have someone of your experience out in the Light. I pray that you may live your life under the guidance of the Universe. Living a new way. I pray these things for you. Now and always.
I am going to just go with this for a while and see how it works out. I'll let you know. Prayer seems to work, no matter how I do it.
Peace.
