Day 16 of 21 Day Meditation Challenge - Quantum Healing

Day 10 for me.
As quoted on the 21 Day Meditation Challenge website in reference to Quantum Healing; "The first step in any healing process is acceptance. Once we accept this moment exactly as it is, we can heal. In today’s meditation, we’ll cultivate powerful acceptance of the present, opening to the experience of the wholeness, well being, and love that awaits us in every moment."

The first step in the healing process is acceptance. I pondered this in today’s meditation. A lot of pain has built up in my system. I find myself resenting my significant other frequently. I want to release these emotions and focus on the thought "everyone is doing their best from their state of consciousness". I believe my father cultivated this blame of others for my situation and yet he to is doing the best he can from his state of consciousness. I love my family and would never want to inflict pain or hard feelings. I am only incorporating this into my self-awareness of why I do certain things that are painful to others.


Taking responsibility for your actions, no mater where they manifested and releasing them into the universe is part of the healing process. My intent today is to change this behavior before it manifests in my children. We must all take responsibility for our own actions. Namaste

Love your children and everything will be alright

Keeping in touch with your teenagers is a BIG challenge, but so far I think I am doing a great job. I grew up in a time when home ownership and having the things you need were right at your fingertips, but my situation is far from ideal. The best home I own right now is a run down mobile home with air leaks and mold. I feel like I haven't had the tools my parents had to teach my children responsibility. For instance, we grew up on a simple farm with a few cows, goats, chickens, pigs, turkeys, horses, and a large garden. There was a lot of responsibility involved in maintaining the farm, keeping the house clean, and weeding the garden. My children on the other hand did not have those advantages. Yes, I believe it was an advantage because I learned a lot from that experience. The best I have been able to offer is every other day the children switch dish night or cook a family meal.

This said, I continuously hear from others how great my children are and how responsible and what hard workers they are. How did I accomplish this?, I often ask myself, but somehow I did and they are great kids.

I have always made sure to say as they leave for school "Have a great day" and as they go to bed at night it's always "Goodnight, sweet dreams, I love you". I may not of had a lot to offer, but somehow I have raised wonderful children. Both my teenage daughters are in College. My two younger sons are helpful and loving. So in this imperfect world, love your children and everything will be alright...
