Part 2- A father's Love
I don’t believe that things happen by accident or
coincidence, even though we use those words redundantly in our lives; each
person and every Xperience is put into place for a purpose; lessons that we
need to learn or things we need to teach someone else. With that being stated, it then becomes more
of a matter of gaining insight into the why, and as it has been pointed out to
me, in this human capacity, we don’t always have the ability to reach that kind
of understanding.
So if my perception is that there are open wounds and empty
places in relation to my biological father and our lack of a relationship; my
job is then to figure out how to apply the correct medicine to heal those
wounds from the inside out, right?
The first vital relationships we have with the opposite sex
are with our parents, boys are drawn into the softness and comfort of their
mothers, while girls are drawn into the strength and protection they get from
their fathers; so if we don’t get those things, can you actually miss something
you never had? Yes, because society gave us role models like June Cleaver and
Mr. and Mrs. Brady (just aged myself, didn’t I? lol) so we then compare and
contrast, us to them, etc…or as kids we witness our friends who have more
functional homes than we have and want what they have, and seek the loving
relationships that our friends had with their mothers or fathers, feeling
confused and resentful when we don’t get the same thing. I recently listened to
a clip from one of my favorite authors, Iyanla Vanzant, and she said that the
things we experience in this life, are things that our soul decided upon before
coming into this body in this physical sphere; things that we wanted to experience to advance
ourselves to a higher level of energy and consciousness.
That leaves me thinking that all of this had its place and
its purpose then, I’m not a victim, I chose
this life because it would offer me the insights I was coming here to gain.
I guess ultimately I need to be thankful for the blessings in
all of this, I have to choose that over sadness and a feeling of loss, it’s all
a matter of my perception, it seems. I have the pleasure of having his wife in my
life today, someone who was as close to him as another can be perhaps, and she so
openly and willingly shares her memories of him with me; I know that that is no
accident, we both believe he led us to each other because it was time. I think the
medicine I need is simple surrender, acceptance and a willingness to just trust
that this is all exactly what it was meant to be; and that one day he and I will
have that meeting on the beach. I'll meet you there, Dad.

Day 4 & 5 of 30- Positive thinking
So yesterday was a challenging day to say the least; I did alright, but left alot of room for improvement, for sure. It's easy to find gratitude and positive light when the world seems to be less threatening, but when life is throwing punches and a person has to dodge and weave the hits, it becomes more of a challenge. My goal is to focus on the good things though and not dwell in the lower vibration that life is trying to pull me down to while I am doing this 30 day experiment.
I finally made some time to just sit down and watch some good movies with friends last night, enjoyed some great laughs and some good times.
I am witnessing the strength and beauty in my beautiful daughter as she deals with her own struggles these days. She makes me proud without even realizing it and although I do worry for her regardless of what she says; I have Faith that she is resilient enough to rise above any and all of the bullshit that is being tossed in her direction right now.
Today I'm just simply glad to be here; to be Me and to be living life each day, even through the struggles and the pains, I can rejoice in the fact that I am still going, still pushing and still succeeding one step at a time. :)
Happy Wednesday!
