Food for thought, food for the soul

-Forgiveness/Trust-

To see past the errors of others will move you one step closer to
forgiveness, to trust
Enough to open your heart again without fear of pain and lastly a brief
moment of divinity.

Trust comes hard, but must be given to move forward. Trust in the ones
you care about to do well and to make mistakes. Trust that they will
learn from their mistakes the hard way and the easy way no matter that
pain they feel. As you have found your way they will as well.

Torch and tassel have been passed and turned. They will find their way
through the darkness that proceeds them knowing that they will always
be able to find their way back to you with what you have given
them.

-Acceptance/Change-

Accept the people in your life for who they are and not who you want or
expect them to be. Accept them as you would want to be accepted. Accept
the things that you cannot change. You must be who are as they are who
they are meant to be.

Life is about change and how we accept and respect that change, but
personal change cannot be demanded anymore than it can be given. Change
happens and no one can predict when the change will occur or how it
will affect things. Change is constant, sometimes rampant sometimes
plodding, but always constant. Whether you accept them or not, you can
never stop them or shape them into your image when they are the changes
of another.

-Reflections-

Reflect on who you are and where you are. Only you can determine what
is right or wrong in your life. Shatter the images that others create
to see through to the person you are and want to be. Revel in yourself,
don't deny what you want for the sake and comfort of others. Embrace
your spirit, take flight and soar!

-Challenges-

Embrace the situation. See through the eyes of the one you care most
for. As you have, put her first and all shall fall in place as it
should. Lead first with the heart, second with the mind, and third with
the hand.

Share what you can, fear nothing and chose wisely for your actions
longer affect you alone. Keep that to heart and you shall never fall
far from where you want to be.

-Honesty-

Unless you accept the reality of the situation you will never be honest
with the ones who care about let alone yourself. Each deception
conceives another looming ready to strike. Accept who you are and do no
let a situation determine a course of action. We are who we are no
matter what we do. Who we are is determine by actions and words not
things, not by others. Empower yourself do not lose power. Determine
what matters most and where you lie. Always remember that if you cannot
be embraced for who you are completely then it's not truly worth it
because the truth comes out sooner or later.

-As you are -

Remain as you are, open hearted and open-minded. Let your caution guide
you, but don't let it restrain you. Remain true to yourself and your
heart and you will never tread a path alone. Trust in what you know and
who you are. For the answers you seek to questions asked and unasked
are always within your grasp&;#8230;Trust not only in your heart,
but your head. Confusion of one leads to clarity of the other.

Not always, but sometimes it does.
