The Flood is Gone

The wedding of my sister has brought the grief and bliss to come full circle in my family. It is interesting to think that it took so long for karma to come full circle to what has been a source of mixed emotion.

I'm so happy to know that though it has taken 29 years for the ethereal circle to come full swing, it has mended all wounds. It brings hope to me that in this life, things can be made right. But mostly, I believe it has been my pride and stupidity that wouldn't allow me to let go of my grief until just now.

Perhaps because I've been conditioned or have allowed cognitive dissonance conditioning not let go of the past. To some degree I feel that if I did let go, it would betray the others who were affected, I'm strong enough to hold the burden, but it only just festered.

Time heals all things. Though I believe that perhaps, it was me who could have let go of the scales of grudges. All has been said that needs to be said. Ears have listened to what needs to be listened to. I feel now at peace.

Love truly is the only thing that can heal and make all things right. I'm grateful that I am able to have experienced it at the depth that I have. That way, I may allow it to lead me to a better place inside my heart and soul.
