I’m about to lay down Theorem No. 10. How should I phrase it?
Confidence varies directly proportional to forgiveness. (1)
I say that after enjoying a reading from Kathleen in which she made available to me a second opportunity to forgive my father for domestic violence. (2) I took it and enjoyed the release it afforded me.
And I noticed that my confidence increased, I’d say automatically, immediately after.
There was one less tie weighing me down.
A second benefit was that feeling resentment doesn’t feel good. I was making myself feel in unpleasant ways, which went on unexamined.
A third benefit was it also increased my confidence. It gave me occasion to check in with myself on the matters raised by the cards.
And taking stock in that way – inventory I think AA calls it – I could see the progress I’d made in the last few years.
Excuse me. I could see the growth induced by the rising levels of love energy on the planet. My contribution was probably insignificant compared with the energetic component.
It occurs to me that everyone else on the planet is subject to the same rising love energies. Can it be that everyone else is experiencing the same … what I used to call … “emergence”? (3)
Are we all emerging together? Or leaving? (4)
Meanwhile, here and now, I feel increased confidence with the increase in my forgiveness quotient.
Thank you, Kathleen, for that exploration and opportunity.
Next stop on the journey, as I push my edge: Dropping all pretense to being a victim when I’m not.
