Multiplicity1's Journal, 10 June 2010

I wasn't sure what to journal about tonight then I remembered what happened today. I have been trying to think about working on improving my character defects and I have a million of those. Well I was also thinking about my sister and her husband and how maybe I have been a little jealous of their closeness and their finances and that I need to straighten out my attitude about them. I also last night did my forgiveness exercise with my sister as the one I was forgiving and sending Divine Love to. Well I felt like I didn't do it perfectly but something must have happened in these two events because my sister reached out to me when she has been avoiding me for months and called me today and offered to sit with me at our upcoming music festival. It was just like she subconsciously felt that I was trying to approach her in a more loving and Christian way. Another example of God working in my life. Also someone very special to me confided that their children have been abused which is something both my daughters went through. God certainly knew what He was doing when He brought me close to that friend as those events have greatly troubled my heart in my life and now I have someone I can confide in who has forgiven the abuser of her children something I must do to find a peaceful soul. I have found so much comfort from confiding my weaknesses and faults to all of you.
I can see that you love me in spite of them and it helps me to begin loving myself. I am starting to see the good in me through your eyes and through prayer as God works in my soul.
There are a lot of things I didn't finish today but I completed some very important things like doing my Bible study and praying for a while today, spending time with my husband listening to affirmations, thanking my buddies and others who responded to my journal yesterday, and staying on my food plan (except I still have to eat a meal and I am so tired...). I weighed this morning and I am very happy to report I lost 2.9 lbs. A friend offered last night to give me her size 16 clothes because she saw how much I was losing. Another sign of prosperity in my life.
I need to go and eat. I probably won't have the energy to respond to my buddies journals tonight and I missed yesterday too. I am sorry buddies. I'll try hard to get to you early tomorrow. Have a wonderful and prosperous evening and morning.

Congrats on the loss! Don't ever feel alone about what happened to your kids... it happened to my son too by other kids who had been abused by their step dad! It took me a long time to get over that one and sometimes I still feel guilty! Isn't it amazing how tired we get when we don't eat? I mean I have to have my protein shake in the morning or feel totally worthless till I do! I'm dreading tomorrow I have to go to the lab on a fast and get blood work done.

I am really sorry to hear that so many children go through this. God protect them amen. Andrea, forgive yourself, accept yourself, love yourself. I think you have already started when you began your weight loss journey. Only positive thinking :)

So glad your prayer reached out through God and touched your sister. It's so great to see some positive results from all the hard emotional work you're putting in!

Andrea, really positive things are coming your way in your life right now. I know you're bringing them to you, you just keep on growing! So much adversity in life - and people like me often forget how fortunate we've been to escape what seems to be epidemic. Live, love, laugh...forgive and be forgiven. You're doing all the right things and helping lots of us along the way, too.
