Happy Solstice! I always feel it’s a major accomplishment to make it to the day the light returns! YAY!

I am very, very, very grateful for all the transformation that’s taken place in my mind and the benefits it’s brought to my family this year and over the years.

Let me take you back to how it used to be. When someone got upset—usually me—I’d feel this searing pain, like drinking battery acid. That horrible feeling would run up and down my chakras because I was so familiar with judging and attacking myself.  It was devastating.

When that self-attack became unbearable, I’d project it outward.

Blame, blame, blame.
Attack and defend, attack and defend.
For years, this was my pattern.

I’d feel so depleted by it – it was exhausting – I couldn’t bear how awful I felt about myself. So, I had to make it everyone else’s fault just to keep from destroying myself.

And that just made it worse.

Last Christmas, there was a kerfuffle in my family. Someone got triggered and very upset. But here’s the miracle: I immediately felt the deep innocence of everyone. No guilt, no blame, no shame. None of that acid feeling that used to consume me.

There aren’t enough “verys” in the universe to express how VERY grateful I am that I found a better way—a way that actually works and brings liberation.

A Course in Miracles teaches us to take responsibility for our interpretations and feelings. We decide what we’re going to feel based on what we choose to think. If we think “they’re doing something horrible” or “I’m their victim,” of course we’ll be upset.

But here’s what I learned: I used to think “they don’t really love me” and feel terribly upset.

The reason I couldn’t feel their love? I didn’t believe I was lovable.

When we’re convinced the false is true, we suffer.  We must forgive ourselves for creating our own suffering.  (You’re invited to my next FREE Forgiveness Workshop)

All the pain I’ve experienced, I’ve now harvested the learning and wisdom from it. I’m free of that pain.

Those negative meanings and interpretations I used to make?

Gone.

Now, I’m available for the truth and I value it.  I’m innocent.  I’m already free.

ACIM says, “You who want peace can find it only by complete forgiveness.”

This means detaching from all the meaning we’ve given everything. And every day, I find new threads of attachment to give to the Holy Spirit.  Every day is a healing day.

Now when people are upset, even with me, I might get minor agitation but no big upsets. The minor ones fall away quickly. Even when someone’s blaming me (because that’s what we do when we believe we’re a victim), I don’t take it on.

It’s time for us to become the fulcrum point of healing in our families.

One with God is a majority.
We can stand and serve the light without being crucified.
We don’t have to sacrifice ourselves anymore.

I used to swing back and forth: “I’m going to be loving! No wait, I’m so angry with these people.”

That instability came from placing my faith in the world instead of truth. But now I’m building on solid ground.

Here’s my invitation: Let’s dive deep into this beautiful work together.
It’s the time of the Christ consciousness awakening.
Place your hand on your heart and be grateful for the power of love within you.
We get to share the benefits of our healing with everyone because we’re one with them.

LATEST ACIM PODCAST EPISODE: The Christmas Darkness That Haunted Me for 40 Years in this episode of A Course in Miracles: Living the Love, Walking the Talk, I share something too personal for my daily blog—how Christmas brought crushing darkness for 40 years until last winter’s breakthrough. From my morning in Maine, I reveal the 1985 trauma I finally connected to this pattern and the surprising Chapter 31 principle that dissolved it. You’ll discover why I’m experiencing the reverse this December and the misunderstood truth about “100% responsibility” that changes everything. If holidays haunt you, this holds unexpected keys.
