Put it down...

Dear Ones,

Whatever you are carrying with you today that doesn't belong to today, put it down.

Maybe you are carrying some old hurts. Maybe you are carrying some unresolved conversations in your mind. Maybe you are carrying the sadness from a relationship that didn't work out. Maybe you are carrying anger. Maybe there is a heaviness inside of you.

Put these things down. They are weighing you down, like a bag that is too heavy for you to hold. So often we place our energy into things that weigh us down, when we are meant to fly free.

So put these things down. If it helps, make a list. Then burn it. Or, make a list and put it in a box in the back of the closet. Let God handle it until you take the list out at some later date. By that time, things will have changed. If it helps, go for a walk and talk to God, the Universe, the Holy One about all the things that are bothering you. Tell God you are going to put these things down.

Then do it.
Warmly,
meb
