“The emotion that can break your heart is sometimes the very one that heals it…”
― Nicholas Sparks, At First Sight
“It is only with true love and compassion that we can begin to mend what is broken in the world. It is these two blessed things that can begin to heal all broken hearts.” – Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free
I’m not broken; I’m just learning new ways to be me.
“Every time your heart is broken, a doorway cracks open to a world full of new beginnings, new opportunities.” – Patti Roberts, The Angels Are Here
Many people have had their hearts broken during these last few difficult years. When we make a conscious choice to make our lives about being in the world but not of the world, we will experience heartbreak. We will go through the loss of those we love, of hopes, dreams and illusions. We will feel the pain of living in a broken world knowing life does not have to be this way. Things that used to provoke an angry response from me now just bring feelings of sadness.
Still, we carry on, looking for the light coming in through the broken places, walking in, through and as the light of God in this world. This is our calling. This is our life.
This month our quotes will be about heartbreak.
We end this month reflecting on the Power of I AM with I AM as God Created me. This is an easy song to learn so please join in.
“It’s a blessing to celebrate a birthday.”
I still celebrate every year. I also remember that many people did not reach my age and I am indeed blessed with another year on this earth. Many of the people who live around me consider their lives a burden, but I continue to affinm “It’s a blessing to celebrate a birthday.”
In the Bhagavad Gita it says, “Out of a million people, one searches for God. And out of a million people who search, one finds Him.”It’s sort of difficult. That’s how it appears. But if you begin to use I Am as a meditation and you allow the I Am to go deeper and deeper, your bodily consciousness will disappear, and I Am will take over. (p. 101-102)”
― Robert Adams, Silence of the Heart: Dialogues with Robert Adams
“To free my heart, to restore my mind, I cry out, I AM! “– Gillian Duce
This quote really speaks to me. Sometimes I get so caught up in the world and what everyone else thinks of me that I forget who I am. How often I am called back to remember that Spirit lives in through and as me and to let out a resounding I AM to free my heart and restore my mind.
I am blessed; my blessings make me feel even more grateful for being alive every day.
Let us affirm together, I AM blessed.
