BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, August 10th, 2021 by Megan Don in MEDITATIONS WITH TERESA OF AVILA

“We are called to the ever-present and ongoing journey of surrendering ourselves to the divine will. Through this continual act of surrender we come to find our essential nature and thus our true freedom. Even though at times we may find ourselves dying a painful death to our old concept of self, we will discover great treasures in giving ourselves over to the Beloved’s desire.”

Megan Don, in “Meditations with Teresa of Avila”

“Patterns in life are not to be set, and they are not to be handed down from generation to generation. You cannot go back and change the past. You have to let go of it. As you let go of your attachment to the past, you are letting go of the hurt. You are letting go of your reaction to it. You can’t rewrite the script. You can, however, rewrite its power over you.

You can rewrite your reaction to it, not by dint of will, but by realization. Those who may have hurt you are not holding on to their dominion over you now. You are holding on to their dominion over you now. You came out of it. You live now. You are no longer the helpless child. Whatever disasters befell you in the past, they are present only at your say-so.”
