Forgiveness

Forgive and forget.  HA!  Like we do that as a city, state, region, country, world, or culture.  To one would be pretty incredible, to do both would be considered short of a miracle!
When was the last time you forgave someone or allowed yourself to forget any wrong, mistakes, bad times, or trespasses they had with you?  Do you remember how you felt?  The power, liberation, lifting of weight, goodness, and peace that many feel from that moment is just incredible.
Now let's focus a bit more.  Let's talk about YOU!  The mistakes you have made.  The things you have said, that you wished you hadn't.  All those promises to yourself to do this or that, or get this done.  And those new years resolutions... HA!  Right.  As if you had any intention of following through on those.  One broken promise or commitment after another.
Thinking of how we felt when we forgave-forgot verses how we feel about ourselves, two different feelings (for some.)  How do you feel, right now, comparing the two?
Can you imagine how much better you would feel if you simply forgave yourself?  That's right, YOU forgive YOU!  Close your eyes and go back to a time when you forgave someone.  That feeling of warmth, freedom, liberation, safety, closeness, wholeness...  a warm blanket on a cold day.
Let's get "real" for a moment.  You are a human being.  With all of your mistakes, achievements, life experiences you...are you.  And mistakes, disappointments and "life" are all part of our journey.  
We don't know what the person next to us has went through, is going through, or is about to go through, nor do they know us.  How we interact, respond to and behave is sometimes in character, out of character and sometimes somewhere in between.
You are beautiful
You are loved
You are worthy
You are not alone
Give yourself a hug.  Forgive yourself.  Be free of self condemnation.

2013 Week 36

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
Omaha.  Some describe Omaha as a liberal city in an ultra conservative state.  I think if we really break it down, it might be something like this... A progressive, modern, and inclusive city in a state that is homophobic, divisive, and close-minded.

I know that for some, those words a bit harsh.  In my 45 years of life, they are accurate.  As a pastor, I see first hand how harmful Nebraska's law's and policies are for same sex individuals, couples and families.  I see how ignorance from those who live outside the urban areas hurt others at family gatherings, funerals and weddings.  

This is 2013 America!  Stop fighting each other!  Start fighting FOR each other!  Make peace, not war.  Share words of peace, love and compassion.

2013 Week 35

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
Right-Relationship.
I am grateful for being in right-relationship with my best friend, my partner... my husband.  I teach that communication, commitment and compromise are the keys to all relationships, just as mine must be (and is!)

We just experienced a 5 day camping trip with 2 other couples.  This was not "easy street" camping with AC Camper or cabin with electricity; this was tent camping, with a 2am storm WITH raccoon's!   

This trip was in every way a much needed retreat to reset my mind, body and spirit.  I look forward to our annual trip in 2014.

2013 Week 34

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
Pioneer.

Jose Sarria died this week at the age 90.  Jose founded the International Imperial Court System.  An organization that is responsible for raising tens of millions of dollars for charities since the late sixties.  Jose was a pioneer in LGBT rights and taught many to be responsible with those rights!  Jose was a friend of mine.  I will miss his visits on the phone.  And will always cherish such fond memories.

2013 Week 33

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
Witness

 
2013 Week photo:

I drove to Wisconsin this week to officiate a wedding ceremony.  I believe that witnessing is participating.  Although I officiated, I also was a witness.  A witness to see how this couple interacted with family, friends, their children, under stress, when relieved, when emotional, just being human!  

I enjoy watching people.  I enjoy being a witness.  In how we drive, how we talk, how we act, how we learn, how we communicate, how we use words when we are angry, how we treat others.  How we are human!

I hope I apply what I learn to my daily life.  Always striving to be the best me possible.

Happy Sunday!
-Royal

2013 Week 32

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
COMMUNITY
I could have easily chosen the word love.  Community will work this week too.  I got a call from a man whose partner had just been diagnosed with a terminal health issue.  They wanted to get married and insure that federal benefits would be in place since that now can happen if they are legally married!  They traveled to Council Bluffs and got married.  I asked for help for two witnesses who would also donate their time.  And I found two angels... Tina and Nellie.  When the ceremony and signing of documents was done they went to pay.  I said this ceremony, my services and these witnesses are a gift.  Go forth and share love, live life with love and be happy. We all new in that very sacred moment that it was a moment of great love and great community.  Taking care of one another.  AMEN!

2013 Week 31

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
FRIENDS.  I attended a local charity fundraiser and several friends joined me without me knowing they would be attending.  It was a small group and almost $300 was raised for a local pantry that serves thousands of folks without food.  It was a great night.  And I was pleased that I am surrounded by people who support me in making this a better world!

2013 Week 30

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
Home.  I have rented the house we are living in for almost 6 years.  When I first moved in there was no grass on the South side of the house, and the house needed a bit of love here and there.  Today, the back yard is fenced in, the back porch room has been painted and new screen and we have lots of outside furniture.  Inside it is a bit of a jungle.  All in all, it IS not just a house we live in, it IS our home.  A home we share with family, friends and those whom we like to be around.  I am thankful and grateful for the resources for us to have this as our home.

ABOUT THE BLOGGER:
Royal D. Bush was born and raised in the Omaha metro area raised in a single parent family, with his Mother Mildred.  His first many years of life were spent in Bellevue, where he and his mother attended church at the First Baptist Church of Bellevue.  Eventually Omaha became home, where as a young adult, Royal began attending various worship services with friends and family before finally calling MCC Omaha his home, where he went on to serve as Minister of Hospitality.

In 2009, Royal founded Inclusive Life Pastoral Services; a Nebraska, nonprofit, multifaith based organization that offers care and services to individuals, couples and families who are not a part of church, organized religion, or have a religious belief.  He is ordained and serves as a Chaplain.  Inclusive Life serves all without exception, religious and nonreligious.  He continues to share his belief and message that “You are beautiful, you are loved and you are worthy, just the way you are.  You are not alone.”

In 2012 he married his partner of five years, Jonathan.  They share a home in the Dundee area of Omaha.  Today, Royal is a member and attends service at the First Unitarian Church of Omaha.  He currently is working on two projects: A 2 hour “You Retreat” that will be offered monthly, at no charge!  It will focus on allowing people to experience themselves in ways perhaps not experienced before or often.  And secondly, he is studying and training for knowledge with Aromatherapy and Essential Oils.

2013 Week 29

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:

Relationship. It was around 8 years ago that I first started emailing Jonathan.  I lived in Omaha and he lived in New Hampshire.  Our emails soon turned to texts, letters, and phone calls that all lead to a visit to Omaha for Jonathan.  A few months later he moved her.  Our relationship represents almost 6 years of being together and 1 year being legally married (thank you Iowa.)  We can finish each others thoughts and sayings most of the time, and know with a glace where the other is.  I am reminded of a passage that I read at weddings often, it is not finding the right partner, it is being the right partner.  I have found someone who loves me as hard as I love them.  And for that, I am one of the richest men in the world!  I hope you take time to let someone you love very much know how much you mean to them.  A note, a phone call, a visit means the world.  Love wins!

I am sharing one photo each week and one word that represents what I am grateful for.

GRATEFUL WORD:
FAMILY.  Family is given and it is chosen.  Each have their unique beauty, challenges and rewards.  We gathered to celebrate the birthday of a member of our family and it was so great to see 18 unique people gather in community for a night to celebrate, focus and love one person.  Family is awe inspiring.

2013 Week 27

I am sharing one photo each week and one word that represents what I am grateful for.

GRATEFUL WORD: PEACE
Watching the wildlife in the lake was a bit mesmerizing for me.  I got lost watching each little one duck under for food, larger ones disappear for several seconds while going to the bottom.  All of them looking out for one another.  It reminded me of how quickly we can get lost when we let ourselves!  No phones, no schedule, no agenda... just peace.  Peace.  Pass it forward!

2013 Week 26

I am sharing one photo each week and one word that represents what I am grateful for.

GRATEFUL WORD:
Vigilance. On June 26th, the United States Supreme Court cited that DOMA violated Due Process of the Fifth Amendment.  The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) was created under the leadership of President George W. Bush, aimed at preventing same-sex couples from marrying or being recognized by the Federal Government.  With DOMA being struck down, this clears the way for being one step closer to equality in this country.  A long hard fight it has been so far.  The next step will be to rid the constitutional amendments that states  have specifically preventing same sex marriages, unions, or recognizing ANY type of same-sex relationship.  With about 1/3 of the states offering same-sex marriages, with DOMA gone it is thought that many now will alter or enact laws to provide them in their state.  I am vigilant that in my lifetime equality for all LGBT people will be achieved, and no longer will they have to suffer without the over 1,200 laws and benefits that apply to those who are able to get married.  

Further, I understand that same-sex marriage may not fit what some churches, organized religions, and faiths call marriage.  And since we are a secular nation, one without a national religion, I certainly at peace with that.

2013 Week 25

I am sharing one photo each week and one word that represents what I am grateful for.

GRATEFUL WORD: 
LIFE-JOURNEY.  I drove from Omaha to Salt Lake City, Utah by way of Ft. Collins Colorado and Ogden, UT to see friends/family and attend a training convention.  Along the way I was reminded of how blessed my life journey is; those in it, around it and from it.

About the writer…
Royal D. Bush was born and raised in the Omaha metro area raised in a single parent family, with his Mother Mildred.  His first many years of life were spent in Bellevue, where he and his mother attended church at the First Baptist Church of Bellevue.  Eventually Omaha became home, where as a young adult, Royal began attending various worship services with friends and family before finally calling MCC Omaha his home, where he went on to serve as Minister of Hospitality.

In 2009, Royal founded Inclusive Life Pastoral Services; a Nebraska, nonprofit, multifaith based organization that offers care and services to individuals, couples and families who are not a part of church, organized religion, or have a religious belief.  He is ordained and serves as a Chaplain.  Inclusive Life serves all without exception, religious and nonreligious.  He continues to share his belief and message that “You are beautiful, you are loved and you are worthy, just the way you are.  You are not alone.”

In 2012 he married his partner of five years, Jonathan.  They share a home in the Dundee area of Omaha.  Today, Royal is a member and attends service at the First Unitarian Church of Omaha.  He currently is working on two projects: A 2 hour “You Retreat” that will be offered monthly, at no charge!  It will focus on allowing people to experience themselves in ways perhaps not experienced before or often.  And secondly, he is studying and training for knowledge with Aromatherapy and Essential Oils.
