Five years ago while we were in Bali our housesitter here in Seattle told the story that he was stalked and followed into our home. The story came to a conclusion yesterday with the presentation of a homemade gift and a blanket apology “if” anything that occurred resulting from that was problematic.
My computer was stolen, along with my stateside wallet and a lifetime’s worth of jewelry collected from many friends and travels. A large gaping hole remain in my kitchen for four years as a reminder of the “problem”. Yesterday’s A Course in Miracles lesson was “the salvation of the world depends on me”. With that reminder, I knew my role was prescribed: patient forgiveness.
How long are you willing to patiently wait to receive some sort of apology? Are you able to forgive without one? Ki to Happiness impatiently forgives immediately and is willing to patiently wait indefinitely for any kind of apology.

This is a day when I am struggling with what feels like a violation from one I trusted, so your message feels divinely sent. Thank you, Angel.
