Finding A New Life

By Marilyn L. Redmond



Through my many years of searching, prayer, and meditation, I have cleaned out the old for the new life. In doing this, I take responsibility, today.  This is the process of growing up and maturing. This has created a new foundation upon which to build my new life of joy, gratitude, living in the presence of love. I am learning to respond to all circumstances and situations in life with a loving solution. These problems are created for my practicing to live from a loving motivation and heart.

In childhood, my information came from family, friends, and religion. I listened to the doctors and ministers and more problems multiplied. I became addicted from doctors' prescriptions and my minster thought I should stay in my tormenting marriage. I did not find my answers in reading autobiographies, either. I read every one I could, looking for how famous people arranged their lives.

I was a sponge and followed my parents lead. At that time, I did not understand that people pass down what they learn without question and keep perpetuating what does not work. My family modeled their beliefs and mindset. However, it was not working for me. Learning that I could create my own mindset to overcome my inherited genetics, not volunteer to be a victim, and release all false beliefs brought freedom.

In the past, I came from childish reactions of fear. I acted as a child reacting in my older years as this was the only way I knew at that time. Today, I have become aware that changing to responding in love is the responsible way to live. There have been many traumatic occasions in my life in this growing up time for me to practice. "When I was a child, I spoke like a child; I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put aside childish things."
 1 Corinthians 13:11 I understand today that I cannot change overnight or by a magic wand. It is a step by step doing it differently  

Through faith and truth, it is possible to rise above the fear and live beyond its influence in faith. Moving into the "eye of the hurricane" where there is peace and calmness sounded wonderful to me. As fear is outgrown, maturity develops. This time to seek a spiritual counselor or someone can help restore total well being and living in the "Now'. Being fearless brings maturity, unconditional love that is also labeled Christ Consciousness.


When turning my life over to a Creative Intelligence, a Spirit of the Universe underlying the totality of things, I felt a new power and direction to continue in my spiritual journey. My walk in faith moves me further from the qualms of the past. I yield to being in the presence of peace.

I had to surrender to a loving guidance and direction from the love within my heart. I believe submitting to a loving basis for my life was the most difficult decision and action I have taken. I was giving up being the director of my life. Love had always been there, I was afraid to listen and be vulnerable. This was the turning point in my life. Making the decision to allow love to be my guidance and bring direction created a new basis for my life.  I changed from being a fear-based person into being a love- based person. Becoming an agent of love is powerful.
How will my life be different? I have to have integrity. Who will I become? Maybe you are thinking, will people like the real me if I change? Will I even have a life? Telling the truth can be scary. Telling a trusted person/counselor my secrets is freeing.

The past is history. I cannot recreate a new past. Therefore, to accept that I can learn from it and move on is a new independence. For me the change brought forgiveness for all past, present and future people, and events in my life. I give up the emotional strings to be free of reliving my parents' life and my growing up. 

Finding forgiveness, compassion, gratitude, and unconditional love for all creates a new life in joy. Living in the "Now" is a gift that is why it is called The Present. This has brought insight and understanding that I did not expect.

My efforts have produced the basis for my counseling, books, monthly columns, blog, and many articles on the internet. I have come through the major challenges of life and have a new life in the presence of love. Extending this information has become valuable when helping others to move into a better life.  Knowing the truth sets you free.
