Heaven on Earth

“Perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave.”

I’ve realized very recently that I have never forgiven myself for any of the wrongdoings that had befallen me my entire life long.  What a painful and humbling moment; these evil thoughts of mine have been restraining me for far too long.   I initially thought it was others that I must forgive for hurting me.  When I realized that it was not the others but myself that is continuing to hurt, and will simply continue to hurt until I put the past in its rightful place I experienced a moment that can only be described as pure lucidity.  My mistakes and misconceptions will keep repeating themselves until they are understood and put away.  It is said that once we learn to let go we experience heaven on earth.  The demons that continue to haunt me are only my own; for they are my angels in disguise.
