Let go of pain

Holding onto pain, responsibility, guilt, or shame, will not serve you — nor will it serve the other people around you. Learning from these feelings that arise, learning from the consequences of your actions, the impact of your actions on others will serve you in your realization and the realization of others.

You may choose to forgive yourself; to become gentle, kind, and compassionate with who you are, understanding that you have done the best you can in those moments of the past, understanding that a deeper learning had to occur for you and your son, and all those that were involved.

You did the best you can. With this premise, transformation is possible. With this premise, you can continue to complete the experiences of the past, first for yourself, through your completion and through your embrace of the past. As an important teacher, your son will equally start to embrace the past and his realization will take place, sparked by yours. Both of you fuel the transformation of others and the continuation of self-realization within humanity has taken its path.
