For all those in pain today
Something Understood – presented by Jane RayBBC Radio Four has a programme called Something Understood and for all those who are struggling with the pain of the global financial crisis, its aftermath and the stuff that is coming down the line, there is some fabulous advice on all sorts of levels. Here is an extract from contributor Peter Hoskin:
“Often our call in life grows out of the compassion that we have built up because of our own woundedness. In that sense we can begin to see our woundedness as a gift, rather than a failure. It is out of our woundedness and our personal limitations that our healing gifts will come. Healing, praying, loving all go hand in hand.
Healing is loving. When we heal we love. When we love we heal.
Sometimes in our life we can try to solve a problem and there is a time for that, but sometimes just letting ourselves love again and be loved can solve many problems. When we get burned out it is not usually because we are doing too many things, but often because we are not letting ourselves be loved.”
Jane Ray, the presenter, went on to say :”When we let ourselves be loved we are perhaps building the threads of an invisible legacy in the memory of those we leave behind”
I hope that this is helpful.
