The remainder of our life thus is about healing this deck of cards which some posit are about prior-life misdeeds. No matter, the process of healing our wounds is messy, very messy; one could even say 'masochistic'. I profoundly disagree . . . it is just that our souls and the Universe team up in allowing us to subconsciously create the most incredible circumstances, usually fraught with stress and pain, as 'learning opportunities' to gain awareness of our persona's programs. And only with awareness can these programs, all created by the 8-year old to protect wounds, be healed. Another aspect of this process is my guarantee, that if one avoids the opportunity to learn presented the first time, an almost identical set of circumstances will be awaiting you in the future featuring even more drama, stress, and pain. And so it goes . . . . .
