If you think of one thing today, remember this. A Course in Miracles says God has created a solution to the problem the moment it occurs. in #Buddhism — always teachings about our ATTACHMENT. Think about this: would I rather be right or be happy?  When I separate myself from higher power, I am attached to anger, resentment “I’m right! I will keep finding all the ways I am right”. What that does it give people space in our head rent-free. 

We easily & naturally are able to not just create, but enact boundaries when we align ourselves with God and who we truly are: love.

I don’t know about you, but how many times have I thought, “but look what he/she did to me!” — while it’s imperative to look at core childhood wounds — to look at what happened, a narcissist or dealing with an abusive relationship— acknowledge the trauma; our pain. But as I’ve  said, in recovery there’s a saying, “look back but don’t stare”. I only know for me, I choose forgiveness of myself & yes, the other person. Because BOTH OF US were operating from faulty programming, from a place of judgement. From EGO (Edging God Out). We are all innocent in the eyes of higher power.

This is NOT giving anyone a pass or permission to engage in verbal abuse or any kind of devaluing behavior. IN FACT, when turning over this person to God , actually praying for this person “may this person be blessed, loved & happy”, as counterintuitive as that may seem, THIS is where peace lies — for us.
