I was talking to a mother who said it was hard for her to think about her sixteen year old daughter graduating and going to college next year. She so loves her daughter and cherishes the moments they have together.
We all have feelings about all of the things that are happening in our lives. Instead of trying to push away, our thoughts and feelings about changes in our lives, we can enjoy the tug of deep love in our hearts, we can embrace it. Pushing our feelings away, makes them more bitter than sweet, but embracing these feelings makes them more sweet than bitter.
We all have feelings all day long. When we accept and embrace them, instead of trying to push them into the background (which causes stress) we are open and clear and emotionally available for whatever comes next.
There are those of us who have had to feel our di-stress in order to de-stress, so we could heal and thrive in life. And I believe everyone benefits by allowing and feeling their present moment feelings.
When we live in the moment, we welcome all of our feelings and it is a very joyful way to live!
