The Finer Points of Spiritual Practice
Since starting spiritual practice, I have found some parts of spiritual practice confusing and wanted to share what I have learned. When we practice forgiveness, we do not need to take these people back into our lives. In the past, when I forgave people for hurting me, I also took them back into my life.…

Layers of Letting Go
For the past two years, I have been practicing truly letting go. What I am learning to let go is the emotional wounds caused by father who was a central figure in my life. My experiences of abuse, abandonment as an infant, and his infidelity to my mother shaped the person I am today. As…

Living without Expectations of Outcome
When we live without expectations of outcome in our lives, we end our own suffering. I recently have come to understand this very well, and practice this now. This process is part of coming to acceptance about the reality in our life and surrender to that which we cannot control. Expectations of outcome is the…

This is Self Love
For the first time in my life, I understand what it feels like to complete myself. I need no other’s love to feel good about myself, and no other is needed to fill the void in my heart. I want to change my life and want a better life for myself not for others or…
