Today was not the best of days until the RCIA session. We talked about the Sacrament of Penance and that of the Annointing of the Sick. Two important Sacraments that involves, healing and forgiveness.
The exercise was that of forgiving and asking for forgiveness. At first brush, it looked like a mechanical exercise, the human in me was ready to say in a Godly tone the "I forgive you, peace be with you line". but as I dwelt on it, it got to "Please forgive me". An amazing exercise. Segueing into healing. forgiveness means letting go, relieving oneself of that burden of pain, of guilt...
Aging with joy...jauncing through life, like it's the first time, a great discovery, sharing experiences about my life as an elderly woman. There is joy in aging indeed, there is wisdom earned. The wisdom to believe, to cook brazenly and to eat wisely.
