Champion Challenge ” “

Hey Friends! My Peace be upon you, around you and especially within you! Today per usual we started our day by giving Thanks, coffee, giving Elvis breakfast and some love, saying buongiorno to everyone as they woke up and kissing each other before we go our separate ways to do our Champion stuff.

Elvis and I watched the sun rise this morning. I always feel so grateful to witness all the beauty nature holds. All of our luscious greens of summer are now turning brown, orange, yellow, and red. All of life has seasons this includes us humans. Idk.. it’s pretty amazing if you stop to think about it.

I think I’am on the mend! I woke up this morning and I felt some relief and I began to see the light! Feeling around 50% better so that is good! Super tired still but I’ll take it, in theory that means my body is healing!

I started off with good intentions, I did some work on my blog related tasks and started Italian class but I fell asleep again today. My teacher was super cool because she knows i have been sick she left me a message that said we would meet again tomorrow and to get rest so I feel better.

I woke back up right before lunch time sooo my morning was kind of blown but I did feel even better when I woke up. I think my body is fighting hard to heal itself and I need to let it do it’s thing. Staying hydrated, I have been eating well, and I have been stretching at least.

The beautiful part of our bodies is that they know perfectly well how to heal itself. Our jobs is just to support it by adding the things we know our bodies need. Sometimes we are actually doing a lot when we allow ourselves to rest and our bodies to do the works it needs to do to heal itself.

This is something I have had to remind myself of these past few days. After lunch I took a shower to wash off the stench of sickness and got ready for the day. Did some work tasks, answered emails and made some phone calls.

Watered the outside plants and then finished up some more work related tasks and helped around the farm. I have a great feeling hat I will feel even better tomorrow and very soon I’ll be back in action again!

Today’s topic for thought is being good even to those who did wrong by us. Lord Jesus, this is something that is hard to do! When I first started praying and focusing on forgiving certain someones in my life it felt unnatural.

As I continued to work on forgiving those certain someones it began to feel more like it was something I should be doing rather than unnatural. Still working on forgiving and I think it’s definitely more then a process verses something that happens immediately after the first time you pray.

It can be hard to wrap our minds around the why’s and the feeling of how could these certain someones could have betrayed or hurt us the way they did. I tried to figure it out for a long time before I came to the conclusion that we can never honestly know the hearts of some people.

There is a saying ” Hurt people hurt other people. ” It is a cycle that just continues to go on if we don’t take the time to forgive, others, forgive ourselves, and heal. If we don’t we will become angry, bitter, and waste our time and energy thinking about them and replaying the betrayal or hurt.

We will become just like the ones who hurt or betrayed us. Gross right! No one wants to become like the slimy people that did us wrong. So we need to check ourselves before we wreck ourselves and even though it feels outrageous to pray for them and work on forgiveness so have to keep pushing forward.

In doing so we free ourselves as well. Guys, it’s part of the learning to love ourselves process. We can’t be free to go after our goals and dreams if we are still carrying around all that un healed pain and unforgiveness.
