On March 13 Shiree and I spent some time in New England, at a wedding in Massachusetts, and then skiing in Vermont. We went to Killington and skied all day Sunday in sunny grandeur, enjoying the Lord’s beautiful creation together.

Healing the Wounds of the Arrows
I want to be big and let go
Of this grudge that’s grown old
All this time I’ve not known
How to rest this bygone
I wanna be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I want to forgive for the both of usMaybe as I cut the cord
Veils will lift from my eyes
Maybe as I lay this to rest
Dead weight off my shoulders will risefrom “This Grudge,” Alanis Morissette
Not really going to say much about this specifically, but I’ve come to a place where forgiving someone in my past is the only place to be able to let the wounds of my heart to be healed by the Lord. Difficult to forgive something from so long ago, and I never thought I’d ever have to go through this kind of experience: I generally don’t hold things against people in my life. But I was hurt deeply, and never let the hurts go.
Alanis Morissette has been reflective over many things in her songs, and I’ve found myself in many of them. This one came to my mind after I wrestled through the healing process and made peace with what I was to do.
