One of the things on my “Things I Love” list are movies that end with reconciliations after long estrangements.
I feel like I am living one of those movies now. I have been holding a grudge towards a person in my town for a long time, and only recently, thanks in part to Brene Brown’s book, Daring Greatly, and to the power of metta meditation, and to this person’s generosity of spirit, have I been able to soften my heart and just let all the armoring and hate in my heart go.
Tonight I had such a deeply satisfying conversation with my old “grudge buddy” that all vestiges of this old hurt is now totally gone.
It feels good.
I probably should say more about this, go into it more deeply and philosophically, and maybe I will at some later date, but tonight it is late and I am tired and just need to sleep.
Namaste, friends.
That’s a nice experience to have Kath. And I’m a fan too of Brene Brown, her work around vulnerability, resilience, etc. Good stuff.
