Tears of Angels: Part Eight: The Hoffman Process: Marc Gafni

Dad Had a Dad

There are two simple ways to let go of anger at parents and become a lover. The first is to have children and to need to give them blessing. That is the Isaac story that we found by following the love word ra’ah through part of its biblical journey: “Isaac was old, he could not see” — ra’ah — and the tears of angels which blurred his vision initiated our journey.

The second way for Isaac and the rest of us to let go of anger at our parents is to have the profound epiphany/realization that our parents had parents too. Mom had a mom and dad and so did Dad.

What a thought! It is in learning and retelling our parents’ stories that we release anger and come to forgive them, opening up the channels for us to be once again alive and alove.
