Miracles

Note to all: I am not proselytizing. This is my path. It is how I hope to join you as a member of the human race, which, for me at least, seems to be a hard club to join sometimes.

I'm about 120 days into A Course in Miracles.

That in itself is a miracle, inasmuch as my sticktoitiveness has never been so very sticky.

The book is changing my life in subtle ways that surprise even me. All I have to do each day is show up and read today's lesson. The lessons start out simple and get harder. I've gotten to a particularly hard part for me-- the part about forgeiveness. According to ACIM, Forgiveness will heal me. Now if it were only easier to do.

The miracle for me is that even though I'm having a tough time with this part--my head seems hard-wired to resppond to any situation with anger--at no time have I thought that I should give up. I cannot practice the things in the book perfectly, which is another bugabear for me, and yet I just keep opening up the book and reading the next page. And the deep, subtle changes keep coming.

I have forgiven myself for being unable to do this perfectly. Good enough is good enough.  I am getting the changes I have been seeking my whole life. My skin is starting to fit. It kind of feels good.

Blessings to all.
