Coming to Understanding

tumblr_mveit2EQiX1s2rrw7o1_500

During my recent emotional healing work, I have come to understanding not only on a intellectual level, but on an emotional acceptance level that there are those in our lives who could only love us in the best way they knew how.  From our perspective, they hurt us deeply, abandoned us, and even may have physically and emotionally hurts us.  This is particularly true of our family members.

In truth, this was all they were able to give to us based on their own emotional wounds and histories.  We expected unconditional love from them as children, lovers, or spouses because of our own emotional wounds and histories.  Coming to acceptance of our past is coming to understanding that no matter how much we wish, hope, or yearn, our desire to be loved unconditionally will never happened with them.

It is the realization about this reality and truth about our lives that will help us come to acceptance of where we are in our lives. Our continuing yearning and hope for this love will keep us stuck in this emotional limbo preventing us from moving forward emotionally and spiritually.   As I grow spiritually and emotionally, I begin to come to this understanding and try to apply this to my own life.

  2. A counsellor I once saw used to say ‘Most people do the best they can with what they know.’ I’ve never forgotten that. I know that my mother and other family members and even ex husband are and were at certain stages of consciousness and did the best with where they were at. Knowing this has helped me greatly. It doesn’t always prevent my frustration and difficulties with circumstances, but bit by bit I am finding acceptance of my own and others limitations. Blessings to you.

  3. Dear Brooke:
    I cannot possibly understand the hurts that abuser survivors suffer — even long after the events. However, I do certainly know that we people seems always to be feeling our hurts and that a spiritual solution is the only hope for us. Thus, I did adopt similar attitudes. We worship differently, yet, the spirit of creation is the me. I too was moved to understand by spirit that others are doing their best — even when it appears to me that they ought be condemned. My best always may improve. Today, it is as true as always it was true. Today, I may compare myself, but that is not good use of my time. Instead, I focus as best I can (as you say– vibrate) and I want my best to be wholesome and compassionate — peaceful and serene and active in loving of what is good. I do my best and seek to improve this best to be ever more considerate of my need for spirit (higher vibration) and guidance (expanded consciousness). I love the teaching of the eastern philosophies and I enjoy in empathy your blog immensely. As always, I pray for God’s enjoyments to increase and multiply in your life.

    1. Hi Eric, I have been so blessed with all the support and kindness that I have received, and to know that I am not alone in this spiritual evolution. When we can transcend our own suffering and rise above our life struggles, we can then change our world. When we change within, then we can effect change without. Thank you for your compassion. Sending blessings to you, Brooke
