thank you for the link…i will love this and make it part of my life…my advice, not that you asked…forgiveness is the forgiver, not the forgiven…it will bring you inner peace to forgive, even if they never know…you will…and when you finally release that pain and shame and hurt…your healing can truly begin…oh she is indeed ‘in’ there…i invote her to come forth…blessings, rebecca

wow, this post has stopped me in my tracks. I too have a someone in/out of my life who i would call, but who i won’t/don’t call now. and it’s not fear that stops me calling but the knowing that i am not ready to communicate with this person, that our connection may be over with, even though i never really knew why it stopped.
but i would call her in that last hour. i absolutely would. and this knowing makes me pause… thank you for making me think
(hope you’re having fun in japan) x

I love this post. The idea of your future self being out there ready but also loving and patient with the present you.
In Eat, Pray, Love I really connected with the idea that the voice who spoke to Liz when she was on the bathroon floor, the voice that was there throughout her journey telling her “I am here, I will always be here with you” was the voice of her future self. The voice of the Liz who had been through that moment and came out the otherside ready to carry her through those moments.
When you wrote “she is out there with open arms, and right now she is telling me it is OK to take my time, she’ll be there when I need her.” I just felt this big click in my heart/soul/brain. Yes! Yes indeed she is…
You so smart!
