What will you never regret?
celebriticat
I will never regret my trip to Sedona. I just got back last night. I learned so many things about myself and my world. I'll be writing all about it in a column I write, and I'll post the link here.
In my humble opinion, regret is a completely wasted emotion, anyway. There is nothing you can change about the past, and so regret is useless. It's just like shame. It can't bring about positive change, and so it is pointless, even damaging.
Guilt, on the other hand, can be useful. It is a signal we have violated our own internal guidance and can lead us to make a correction in our behavior and to heal our relationships.
Guilt can be misused, as well, however. When we feel guilty over something that is not actually harmful, such as doing something someone else doesn't approve of, or when we hold on to guilt, instead of acting on it and then letting it go, it ceases to be useful and becomes harmful.

Welcome back! And oh, I’m already looking forward to hearing your stories. That sounds just amazing. (I’ve never been to Sedona but I’ve heard it’s just wild… )
Sedona is divine. it has changed thru the years with too much growth, but I bet it was not too crowded now since not as many travelers… that part is too bad. I am happy that more people can get up and see its splendor everyday,
but what it has done to the naturalness of it is sad. one opinion…
aaaaah to the clean air it once was tho…
so what were you doing close to martha and me? can’t wait to hear! I should post some photos, and if you have some, please post. many of mine are old and not from a digital camera, need to get a scanner again…
and most phots do not even come close to how it FEELS there!
regret shame and guilt can be wasteful to our energies, but if we learn from any of them, then it was not wasted… a perspective…dwelling on any of them is negative tho. we can change ourselves and our perspectives…
looking forward to your stories of sedona and your lessons!
did you get to carousel rock or the enchantment vortex? my 2 favs!!!
Even though this was a spiritual journey, I didn’t get to see any of the vortexes. I didn’t take my own car. I intend to return, though, because that is one thing I really want to experience, and I also want to see the Grand Canyon.
The main purpose of this journey for me was to demonstrate to myself that I really believe the Universe is always taking care of me, that I am capable of manifesting what I need and that it is a friendly Universe, not the big, bad, scary world I was brought up to believe in.
So, I manifested two ride shares that were amazing in that every person I shared the journey with was spiritually aware. While I was there, I met more amazing people, participated in my first drumming circle, got to hear a Hopi Indian woman talk at Ringing Rocks, got to see the ruins of an Indian village and pictographs, and most of all discovered it really is a friendly Universe, and that as long as I keep myself centered in love, that is exactly what I attract.
Wish I could have met you while I was there, Peace Artist. Maybe next time.
I’ll tell more of the story in another blog post.
Love the sharing….How’d you enjoy the drumming?…..I love the connection ,flow and energy it brings very grounding for me….something I need to embrace more…..:D
I was inKingman,AZ at the beginning of Feb…loved the landscape and the openness of the energies very transforming……would love to have visited the Sedona area…maybe the abundant universe will provide this in the future.
Awaiting your future blogs….Love n Light
