Question: What can you learn about forgiveness?

Last night during a GoddSCircle meeting a friend facsilitated a yoga/tonglen exercise and meditation. It included fabulous stretches all geared toward opening/expanding the chest/heart area.

During the exercise I felt this stream of consciousness. Afterward I received a form with interesting questions around un-forgiveness - family patterns. It just did not resonate for me after my journey inside. Something inside just wanted to jot down what I had encountered. Another question kept knocking on the door, so I turned the page and wrote

“Question: What can you learn about forgiveness?”

I can learn to be more forgiving
about my body
about anything
more forgiving to anyone

I can be more forgiving
when I let go
of beliefs that do not serve me
and even those that I think
do serve me
After all whatever stone or gem I drop
can always be picked up again

I can be more forgiving
when I embrace ALL possibliities
I can be more forgiving
when I practice Tonglen
Giving up the struggle

Eyes closed
Opening
Breathing in loving light
Exhale what does not serve

Allow,

            allow,

                        allow

S       P       A       C       I       O       U       S       N       E       S       S

In, around and behind the heart

Third eye open

Listening
deep within tuning in
to echoes resonating sound vibrations
from ancient ancestry beckoning
to give birth to new beginnings

Breathing
drawing in loving light
from within and without
Allowing this light
to flow within
Exhale
and to flow without

Seeing tiny bits of blue
bright golden yellows fanning out
to orange, red dancing
licking flames raging into
a blazing fire

Gasp - how big it is
Growing still
How big can I get?
How can I give way to this
explosive demolition site inside?

Opening
Breathing in loving light
Love is patient - Love is kind
Exhale what does not serve
Let it burn, let go

Allow,

            allow,

                        allow

S       P       A       C       I       O       U       S       N       E       S       S

In, around and behind the heart

Third eye open

Being
A vessel
Vibrantly radiating loving light
A shooting star
