27 - An Open Letter to My Absentee Father
In this episode I continue to share the journey that I've decided to go on in healing my past with my absentee father. I decided to venture out and read a book by Gabrielle Bernstein called Judgement Detox: Release the Beliefs That Hold You Back from Living a Better Life. In this book she talks about judgement being fear based and when we judge we exchange love for fear. The emotional battle I had with my dad, I thought I "handled" it years ago. Until last October when my grandmother passed away and the flood gates opened and I found myself emotionally closed off and angry all over again. This book helped to dig to the root of my anger, address it and continue on this journey of forgiveness. In this open letter to my dad I have taken on his perspective in order to begin to develop compassion for him that can be on going. I have made the commitment to chase after love and peace and this is only the beginning. ENJOY!!!!!
