The only way out is through. The only way to heal the pain is to embrace the pain.
--Fritz Perls
In many ways we are like a diamond that is continually being polished and perfected. As this purification proceeds, old thought forms and negative patterns rise to the surface to be released. Past unfinished business must be completed. Old traumas that have been stored in the body ask to be discharged.
This is not a bad thing - far from it. The fact that painful events are being re-experienced is a sign that healing is taking place. Although we may feel tempted to run from these feelings, we can also let ourselves experience them. As we allow ourselves to feel the pain, the pain diminishes and eventually disappears.
God is always helping us to release those things which we no longer need. Let go of the resistance and surrender to the process. Complete the past and move on. If we can overcome our past we can grow and experience a freedom that we all strive for.
