You could say that I am taking my own sweet time with the Blessing Way Challenge. I am still lingering at Day 9 when supposedly I am on Day 14. The thing is I want to be able to really make the most of each challenge and not just rush into it the whole day so that I am ready for the next one tomorrow. What I really want this experience to do is to evidently make a difference in me. I want each challenge to leave a footprint for the better in me.
Each challenge touches subjects like healing the hurts of your past, blessing those who go against you, blessing things, smiling with your whole body, etc. These are not easy challenges in the REAL world we live in. Believe me, sometimes even the most petty things can tip me out of balance and back to my old self. I guess that is where the greatest challenge is.
So far my favourite one is Blessing things which now when put together with Day 9’s Blessing those who come against you is the most Healing experience.
By nature, forgiving is my greatest challenge. Any given day, I’d rather chose to forgive and forget – relieve myself of the baggages but my nature is just the other way. Therefore, this challenge was one of the toughest to overcome. Mahirap magpakabait amidst strong emotions of anger, road rage & daily stresses. The Blessing Way Challenge is somehow working for me as I now know of ways to counter my own nature and not let my emotions control me, instead I take control over my emotions.
I tried this method yesterday… and what a peaceful feeling it was to be able to let peace, love and blessings takeover…even more radiate it to someone else. I never knew that a simple imperfect person like me could really emit blessings and see it make a difference in others.
I am determined to complete this challenge and I will make sure that I do each one properly and with results!
I am a masterpiece in progress… I believe that. Slowly but surely.
How about you, do you find yourself feeling heavy because you let your emotions take over?
