At Christmas time we send out greetings of Peace, Love and Joy, and yet we fail to send them out to the folks we are estranged from.
The meaning of estranged is, No longer close or affectionate to someone; alienated and I wondered what I would write to those who I am not close to, but have been.
My Estrangement Christmas Letter…
Since we are no longer close, we no longer communicate and that leaves us in silence. In that silence and space there seems to be peace; for separation brings us both peace in our lives, for each of us disagree with the way the other is walking.
As we both walk separated, we are here for a reason…a season or a lifetime. I can't know if we will never connect, or have given each other the lesson or message we needed to…or do we come together at another time…and for another reason.
It seems that if you let someone go and they come back to you, it was meant to be, and if they never do…that too is the way of it.
We were in each others lives until it was no longer peaceful to be.
I have no regrets to walking my path, nor in letting you walk yours…holding each other prisoner in a life we don't want would not have made us closer. There is peace is separation.
I have learned volumes of lessons in letting go, in giving freedom, and in seeing when I held on too tightly…and smothered life.
Estrangement actually feels honorable when our ways of living life are different and not closely related; our paths are strange to each other…I would not force you to walk on my path and am thankful you are not asking the same of me.
I wish you peace as you walk your path and know there is a rhythm and beat to the drum you follow, that only you can hear. It is your heart and your soul you follow…it leads you.
You can make no mistake, for your life is set for you pace, your comfort and you will always know when to move. Always. It is never too late or never not right. It is always right for you.
I wish you joy in all things. Joy at being you.
I wish you love of self first…for it leads the way.
And yet, there is an belief that says we do one of four things;
We come in Light and move toward the Light
or come in the dark and stay in the dark
or come in the Light and move towards the dark
or come in the dark and move towards the Light.
The latest is me. I can't know your journey, nor can anyone, but you. I can only honor what you say and what you do…for you do it for reasons that only you can know.
Whatever is your journey, I wish you peace, love and joy.
I thank you for whatever time we spent together, what messages we shared and the lessons we learned. I know for me, that each person I have been in contact with has walked part of my journey with me.
You lent a kind word, walked through a particularly dark time, showed me the wrong way, brought me words I didn't want to hear, etc…I couldn't have done it without you.
I believe that those I am estranged from are Angels who did what they had to do to make me who I am today. Even the dark ones, had to walk a particularly hard journey to help me see. I am in awe of your journey the most. For it is easy to be a Light walker, and much more difficult to walk the walk of the dark.
On this Christmas, I wish you peace on your journey…and am grateful for you being part of my journey. It is with an understanding heart and soul, I know we would be together if it was meant to be…
Have Peace this Christmas…
