Mary had trouble accepting her dad - constantly complaining, choosing to be a chain smoker, all the while nagging, and making Mary's life miserable.
Is there someone in your life that's hard for you to accept?
Mary carried resentment in her heart, like an aching void. She hadn't had the life she felt she deserved. Years after his passing, Mary heard herself one day sounding just like him, and she was shocked to hear that echo in her. Stopped in her own bitter tracks she resolved to find freedom. She grasped the opportunity to look deeply not only at herself, but more honestly and kindly at her dad. She discovered his humanness - a man in poor health living from paycheck to paycheck. She felt regret and missed him.
Mary was able to find peace in her heart and honored the efforts he made. She hunted for his favorite coffee mug in the attic and connected to him by using it. All the darkness from her eyes faded; she had a new unexpected vision of her father.

"Being in the From Pain to Peace course has been absolutely transformational! It was such a courageous and safe place for all of us to explore. The exercises both in class and as homework were amazing at showing me deeper and deeper levels of resistance I had to responding to my son instead of in the ways my heart was sensing I should. It's been over a month since we completed our final class and I have been able to sustain my out of the box space with my son for the most part. And with this new foundation, I seem to be shedding other boxes with other relationships as well. This is such a huge gift in my life!" ~ SD
"In the From Pain to Peace course I had a wonderful experience. It created a safe place for me to be vulnerable and explore my box and have the real awareness that I was coming into every encounter with, ‘I am going to fix it (them).' I brought it in a physical way where I was pushing people away. I discovered what it was to be ‘truly responsive' and understand another person's fears and needs. This course was a way to experience community as well." GS ~ Heart Surgeon
