Daily Affirmations: To Be Empowered

August 13, 2015

got it

To be empowered, I re-mind myself that I am the person responsible for my life and all the extraneous things that happened in my life in the past that caused me pain, are past. I can change the way I look at the past by offering forgiveness to those I perceive have done me wrong. I can ask for healing to change my view of the past. And if, sometimes, as life would happen, things come up in the present to remind me of the past and dredge up my sad and hurtful feelings of the past, I can take some time to examine why these issues still cause me pain and work towards understanding and releasing that pain. In that I will find that “got it” moment when things are clear and I can let go. Namaste… Pamela

Quote of the Day: Neale Donald Walsch

May 21, 2015

Relationship lessons are often the hardest ones to get. Try as I may, sometimes it is so difficult to not take things personally. But our reaction to someone else’s actions is often what causes us the most pain. Over time I have tried to move past an issue I have with reaching to people I care about who are going through a tough time and having them not respond. What is most difficult to justify in my mind is knowing that it matters to me when loved ones reach out to me when I am going through a tough time. I treat people as I want to be treated. Alas, we are not all the same. So, I try to remember this lesson…

“Look to see what you are being,
doing and having in any given
moment, not what’s going on with
another. It is not in the action
of another, but in your re-action,
that your salvation will be found.”
– Neale Donald Walsch

Daily Affirmations: Open Heart

March 25, 2015

Today, I re-mind myself that an open heart that is sincere and compassionate fuels my own confidence and self-esteem as well as giving comfort and solace to others. I acknowledge that my open heart may be vulnerable to grief and sadness as well as happiness and joy, however all relationships bring teachings that we may learn from them. All relationships are assignments… There is something we must learn, something we must give, something we must receive in those assignments. This is all part of the lesson.

Namaste… Pamela

Daily Affirmations: Relationships

March 23, 2015

I am a woman with a huge capacity to love, yet I have spent much of my life single. It seems a strange dichotomy at times, especially when the heart has been freshly wounded by a failed attempt at a relationship. What was first joy and happiness borne of finding someone special, turns to pain and grief, when the reality sets in that a relationship is not meant to be.

In these times, when the heart aches for what might have been… I re-mind myself, I am abundant, I have love. I am blessed with the knowledge that my life is filled with wonderful family and friends who love me and I love each of them. I thank the Universe for each wonderful relationship in my life and I acknowledge, I am abundant, I have love.

Namaste… Pamela

Quote of the Day: Thích Nhất Hạnh

March 22, 2015

The heart and soul of an empath is easily hurt by the pain of others with whom they feel a connection. This is a valuable reminder from Thích Nhất Hạnh…

suffering

The other part of this, in my opinion, is that person who makes you suffer has to be willing to see their “suffering is spilling over” and the fact that they “need help.”

Until the suffering being, who takes out their pain on others, is willing to own their suffering and get help, they will keep hurting people. We are helpless but to offer them prayers and compassion, while we shield our hearts.

Namaste… Pamela
