FIND WHATEVER NEEDS TO BE RELEASED FROM THE PAST

I sometimes hold on to things far too long. I mean that both actually and emotionally. Like many people, I went through a really difficult relationship for longer than I ever should have. I have emails, hand written notes, and texts that document years of ugliness. Today, as I was looking for a not-to-be-found object, I came upon a dresser drawer chocked full of all those nasty papers. I was compelled to look at practically every one of them. As I read, I could inwardly 2hear myself calling out, “I don’t want to keep this!” and I put the offending paper in what became a growing trash pile. The pile swelled by the hour, until the drawer was empty and every horrible word was in a mountain of disgust. It was the right time for me to be done with keeping those reminders that had symbolized holding on to my painful past. 

When the trash pile was complete, I took it to a pay-per-pound shredder and let the slicing and dicing free the hold my past had on me. It was a liberating and intense release. Yes, it was dramatic, but it felt so good!

I had the feeling that all the heavenly beings who watch over me were cheering me on. I had such a sense of support and encouragement even though I was by myself in blissful silence. Perhaps all this could have happened sooner or more simply, but I was perfectly delighted with the whole event, from opening that drawer to the destruction of the contents.  

I hope you find whatever it is that needs to be released from your past and enjoy the final ending – with or without the drama. Perhaps you might find a way to experience your own unburdening with a flourish!
