Meditation – I Let Go into the Pool of Forgiveness

I let go into the pool of forgiveness. 

Sometimes I visualize myself floating in a large scallop shaped shell.  I think the idea of floating effortless is showing me that it’s not a fight to forgive or to set your negative emotions free…it’s your natural state…float…clear…expand…enjoy…dip your foot or hands into the water…PLAY.  Sit and imagine yourself floating…feel the ebbing of the water, the sun on your face, the feeling of letting go of everything, just BE.

Sometimes I visualize the creek where my siblings and I would play when we were young…behind our summer cabin near Allegheny State Park…rainbows reflecting off sparkling shallow waters, mossy rocks that felt like velvet to our bare feet creating paths of stepping stones…downed tree trunks crossing the creek for us to climb on and hang off of…so alive with life…dragonflies, small fish and tadpoles…moving and staying still…hidden from the rest of the world.  I see the rainbows reflected off the moving water…the tiny waterfalls.  I pick a color and take it into my essence.  I become that color…it is alive…dancing in the air.  I become part of nature…part of the stream life around me.  What is this color teaching me?  Showing me about myself?  About life?  What message does it have for me?  I can leave it at that or continue the meditation with any other rainbow colors that catch my fancy…drawing on the messages and emotions presented throughout the day.  I am at peace.
