Letting Go Of The Past

Sometimes we hold on so tightly to the past, that we have difficulty moving on. Our memories hold us prisoners, as we replay the hurt, anger, and betrayal that we experienced as if it was yesterday. We have identified ourselves as a victim for so long, that it may be difficult to imagine ourselves any other way. But there is hope, if we let go of what was and look towards what can be. A life where tears will flow because of the joy in our hearts. Let the pain stay where it belongs, in the past. Today, just imagine what it would be like living a peaceful life. You don't have to do anything more than that. The first step begins when you can dream of a life where taking a breath doesn't make your heart ache. Know that there is a place where you can find your heart's desire, if you let go of the past. Let's begin the journey together.

Flowers are the purest form of a peaceful existence...

(It hurts my heart when my loved ones are in pain. I want to gather them in my arms and tell them that everything will be okay. But I understand that we all need to journey this life in our own way. It's difficult to watch as they stumble, but it's a joyful day when they pull themselves through turbulent times by supporting each other. C, M, and K, the love you share for each other is a wonderful thing to witness. You are all my heroes tonight.)
