We regret to inform you

REGRET~ the human emotion of  "feeling sad, repentant, or disappointed over something that has happened or been done, especially a lost or missed opportunity" (Dictionary.com) . We live our daily lives with some form of regret and, as I am learning, it serves no purpose. It does nothing but remind us of what could have been, keeping us in the past. It keeps us sad, depressed and sometimes fearful. It eats away at our very being until all that is left is a hollow shell. Truth be told I have regrets. Here's the thing: as long as I look back on those regrets I will always find a reason to stay sad and connected to those regrets. My mother always says "you can't un ring that bell". What's been done is done and wishing it could have been different locks your ability to move forward into a death grip.

You may have heard me yammering about these "Isochronic tones". I would venture to say I am "addicted" to them but only in the sense that they actually help me through each day and new step I want and/or need to take. I believe these tones to be helping me to heal and strengthen my kidneys. I believe that these tones are keeping me in the "Zen Mind" . I had a PCT ( patient care tech) in the hospital that would ask me "what are we listening to today?" and one night she and I got into a deep discussion of what I was, in fact, listening to. She never said " you crazy old lady" but you could see it in her face. I finally said to her, as I have said to others, " If it's all in my head and turns out to be a placebo, that's okay. Good job to my brain for believing in the placebo and  now I have pretty music to keep listening to." She seemed to connect to that statement.

I digress. The reason for this blog is regret. As I sit here staring at my computer screen I am listening to "No Regrets" Isochronic Tones. As I listen to it I feel a deep sense of relief. It would be cliche but I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders. Earlier I was listening to "Christ Consciousness" and one of the tips they give you was to think about things, whether they be good or bad. When you get to the bad thought or memory simply say I send love to you and then allow the music to carry that love to the thought or memory. How very simple and yet very effective! I release my negativity, my regrets, my bad/sad memories and send them off into the cosmos attached to love and forgiveness.  Think of it as spring cleaning. You thrust the dusty curtains open and push open the windows to fresh air and warm sunlight. In doing this we open ourselves to absolute and unwavering love. Whether or not you believe in a high power or consciousness and label it God or The Universe, opening ones self to absolute love can never be wrong.  So I leave you with this:

Regret is a part of life. We've all lost something, an opportunity. Focusing on the loss is unhealthy and non productive. I don't believe in a God that wants nothing but pain and suffering. I also don't believe that you and I are "accidents" and that we are doomed to repeat our mistakes. I can't believe in a higher consciousness that uses our misfortunes as a giant cosmic "got'cha". I do believe that each one of us is unique, "original and worthwhile" and that we are a part of the "Christ Consciousness".  If it turns out that I'm wrong about all this, then when I die and meet you in line at the Pearly Gates, we can for sure have a discussion bout it. Until then, what or who or how does it hurt to always be in a place of love, understanding and forgiveness?
