"Healing is Like an Onion"
By Fran Hafey/Mysti
Unpeel an onion. As you’re unpeeling it, you notice it keeps going and going until you reach the center and even then you can peel until there is nothing left.
That's what we need to do when we heal. We need to begin peeling away the outer layers that aren't needed, throwing them away. As we work to the next level we deal and heal with that part. It's not an easy or short process, and can be different for everyone.
Sometimes the peeling away can make us cry just like that onion. We reach memories and old wounds that open up and can cause us many emotions. What ever they are, they need to come out, be dealt with and understood.
Getting rid of the "old stuff" has to be a decision we make on our own. No one can walk our journey for us. We may have many teachers and people that love us and can help guide us,
but the choice us ultimately ours.
Just as the donkey said above, sometimes we’re so wrapped up in the layers we’re afraid of our real feelings. How often do we hide from them, instead of facing them head on, dealing with them and then letting go, allowing them to dissipate into the air like the mist that once surrounded us and kept us from seeing and feeling the truth?
Like the Ogre, we know we have the layers, but we avoid them until one day the shifting of energy brings them about and we must face them. We can only run so far and why not decide to reclaim your personal power, pick up your sword of light and cut those layers away.
Peeling away the layers of pain, hurt, misery, unforgiveness, anger, discomfort and doubt will indeed make more space and time for those things that bring us joy!!
As these things come to the surface, we are then able to sort them out, face the questions we have and note our reactions to them. We can then deal with them once and for all, allowing ourselves to let in the light of love, peace and healing.
You’ll be amazed at how wonderful and free we can feel
when we finally reach the layers worth saving and healing.
So lets get started today peeling and healing!!
