This claiming takes a great deal of courage; yet, if we can claim the truth of our beloved-ness, even if it is at head knowledge only, eventually the claiming will sink down into our hearts.
If you have had your heart broken, hold on a little bit longer. Seek healing, gather up a little bit of faith that there is more for you. If you can muster up the courage to look for a therapist who is the right fit for you, there's a good chance you'll embark on a journey that leads you to becoming more of you, more of what your original blueprint was drafted for. Pain would like to tell you that you're not good enough, healing dictates an entirely new story of confidence and peace, deep down into your bones.
Carl Jung pulled from the Christian mystic Meister Eckhart, who believed that the great treasure is the human soul, which bears the imprint of God. And as the wonderful Donald Kalsched has written, this mysterious reality has always been "located" in man's inner life.
Dear Friends, take time to nurture your beautiful soul with compassion and curiosity, and maybe even with the risk that there may be more of you waiting for you.
"Becoming the Beloved is the great spiritual journey we have to make."
