When I started this blog, I felt that I had become a wizened crone, the older woman with all the knowledge to dispense to the younger women in my life - my daughters, my friends. My friends laughed at me and shook their heads, you are still so vibrant and alive, how can you say that? I thought I was successful at creating the veil or wall around my heart.
Today I went to a new church, not my church of birth and watched folks carry cardboard signs that read one thing on the front of the board about something they had overcame and the reverse showed how with God's help, they were able to work through their pain. One woman held a sign that said, I used to have a wall around my heart protecting me from heartbreak. The reverse said, with God's help, my heart is healed and loving.
Today my heart is open and I find that this can only have been achieved with God's divine help. I did not consciously open my heart. I did pray to God for health and happiness. God answered me. Let me know a true heart I asked? He answered with a true heart. When I feel loved by the beloved, I am more loving to you, all of you.
Some people want to throw fear in the mix - what if? what if? protect your heart - don't let anyone in. Can you overcome the foreseeable heartbreak coming, they ask? Are you sure you want to do this thing? I can only say that this month has brought me more happiness, more love than I have had in years and if I only had this one month of love, than it is enough for now.
