I woke up this morning not realizing that it was International Women’s Day.  In my meditation, I asked how can I be of service to women today.  I thought about the women in my life and the work that I do.  I had some unresolved resentment and hurt in my heart from women that I was close to.   A voice inside of me said, “It’s time to forgive, let go and love.”  So, I listened.  I brought up one by one a woman in my past that I hadn’t resolved conflict or hurt between us.  I opened up my heart, and forgave myself for the contribution that I made in the conflict.  As my heart released, I forgave that woman as well.  My heart opened wider, I held this woman in a place of unconditional love and saw her as a gift to the world.  I felt a lot of love, light and power around me.  Deep down inside I knew that I was doing this for all women.

I know for many women, there is a challenge to be competitive with one another.  We are taught by the media, from our own mothers, aunts and friends that this is the right way.  By doing so, we hold women back collectively.  I see that this in women in my surrounding community.  There is unresolved conflict between women, and it holds us back from being our most powerful selves.

So, in honor of you, in honor of women locally and globally, what is something that you can do to be of service to women today?  Is there resentment or unresolved hurt that you’ve been holding onto in your heart?  Is it time to heal and forgive?  There is nothing in the world that love can not heal, and you are love herself!!

I honor you as a powerful woman.  I honor you as a radiant, sensual and beautiful woman.  You are a gift to the world!!
