Whether it’s Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or any day we honor someone in our lives, the most important thing to remember is the abundance of your love and to give Special Presents of Abundance.
It’s not every day of the week we tell someone we love that “”no matter your good, your bad, I love you with abundance, unconditionally”.
Now that story is easier said than done and conceptually, it’s beautiful. It’s taken me a gazillion years (that’s a technical term) to see things differently and be able to share my own unconditional abundance with people I love.
Usually a family member knows how to push your buttons more than anyone else. But here’s a quick and simple way to look at it and let it go for their special day:
Everyone is put on earth to learn lessons. If you’ve made mistakes, it’s ok. Let it go. And if someone you love has made mistakes? It’s ok. Let it go.
Once you are able to forgive mistakes of those around you, it will be easier to forgive yourself for things you do, that you think better of later.
To that end, bad feelings you’ve had created by your mistakes or things you might have done differently is just a lesson you were put here to learn. Whether you learned it this time, or it will take more times of experiencing that same thing to get the learning value? No matter. It let’s you realize that bad experience was actually good and fine. It pointed something out to you, that you have yet to learn or actually learned this time around.
When it happens with a relative…. it’s their lesson, that they need to learn, and you are just a pawn in their experience. Usually, it’s not personal (although most times it does feel like it).
With this shift in thinking, you can take a day we honor our parents or a family member and be ok sitting across a dinner table from them.
And that’s the real lesson to learn.
Happy Eating,
