ACIM Workbook Lesson #249
“Forgiveness ends all suffering and loss."
I love the stories I hear every day in the gallery: A 68-year-old woman celebrating a first marriage to a man she's been friends with for 15 years. A woman who is dying of cancer and just bought beautiful red shoes to wear to her impending chemotherapy (which she described as throwing a bucket of water at a forest fire). A child-like middle-aged man who spent quite some time telling me about Sheldon on a TV show called The Big Bang Theory. A woman who gave away her home and all her belongings to her children and moved to a remote area in the woods, riding and tending to horses and building a rustic cabin while living in a small make-shift abode. Her friends all think she's lost her mind; I think she's found it! People share the most astonishing things with me! I'm so happy to not be afraid to laugh in the face of death, cry happy tears with stories of romantic weddings, giggle along with childish tales, and cheer on a woman brave enough to follow her dream!
Mary Baker Eddy quote:
“God fashions all things after His own likeness. Life is reflected in existence, Truth in truthfulness, God in goodness, which impart their own peace and permanence. Love, redolent with unselfishness, bathes all in beauty and light."
Science & Health Page 516:9-13
