I am reminded how I needed each experience so far in order to be where I am today.
I have gone through trauma, abuse, assault, bullying, being bullied, and alcoholism.
I have cheated, lied, stolen, committed adultery, and broken a variety of laws.
I have been arrested, put in a jail, spent time in a mental health ward, and seen therapists.
All of which were simply experiences from which I was allowed to choose my lesson.
I chose to find healthier responses to life so I could experience different outcomes.
I have forgiven others, and I have forgiven myself.
I have chosen to heal the hurts and to live in the present moment in order to experience happiness, joy, and freedom.
When I do find myself living in the past or the future I stop, breathe, reset, and return to the present moment in gratitude.
May each of you allow yourself the gift of releasing the past and living in this present and generous moment.
You are Love and Loved.
