This Blessing of Being.

Maya Angelou once spoke of forgiveness, that it was the greatest gift that we might ever share. “Love recognizes no barriers,” she said. “It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.”

And, hope is what we need most of all.

Hope is the catalyst for shared understanding. It is the empathy we see reflected in another’s eyes. It serves us in our quest for humanity; to reach through where otherwise disinclined. As grief threatens to force Freedom’s wings, hope begs Soul’s liberation.

“I am grateful to have been loved and to be loved now,” she once said. “And, to be able to love, because – that liberates. Love liberates. It doesn’t just hold; that’s ego. Love liberates.”

My darlings, today this message couldn’t be clearer.

There’s been much in the press regarding the separation of heart from human; questions raised as to the viability of an everlasting peace. But, there is a sense of boldness inferred – a request to raise compassion over ego. And, forgiveness – our primary obstacle.

To forgive is to lessen this burden; to free our hearts to contemplate what might be – rather, than holding tightly to that which has passed.

On this day, I wish to share an inspiration through video; and the blessing of always ‘doing right.’

In peace…

Namaste ♥
