Holly responded on HarshaSatsangh:  Our failings and recoveries and 
learnings are 
the fuel that runs the universe.  Nothing is lost and nothing is without 
meaning.  More and more frequently, I see my life as God does, a remarkable, 
complex, and moving tangle of human emotion, desire, and love.  The metaphor 
is stale, but you know how you can love and root for a character in a movie 
or book?  You can feel this way about yourself, too (as we do when we are 
identified with divinity), but it requires that you relinquish shame and 
honor yourself for all the effort.  Being a human being is no easy task.  If 
you can forgive and love yourself from a more impersonal place (but no less 
tender), you can see that all there was God, anyway.   Love, Holly

Thank you for sharing JB the deeply moving account and story of your ex 
wife. And yes, the letters. How we look at them differently after many years 
and see how rich our vocabulary was when we were very young and how richness 
of words can both uplift us and others or diminish us and others as well. I 
understand that from personal experience, having been both on the giving and 
receiving end. I suspect we all understand. That is just part of our 
humanity JB and perhaps we have no choice but to understand our humanity, 
accept it, and have compassion for ourselves. In that context Holly's 
response is marvelous and beautiful.
 
Thank you Holly, Jan, and also Gloria Greco (welcome again Gloria) for 
responding with richness of your own experience and the depth of your 
insights to JB's post. Sharing can be healing as we are all one in humanity 
and our experiences have a common ground. As you speak from the heart, you 
bless yourself and bless us as well by opening us to our heart. That is 
indeed both beautiful and healing for us all.
 
Thank your for that 
With gratitude and love to all 
Harsha
