<strong>Making</strong> <strong>Your</strong> <strong>First</strong> <strong>Million</strong><br />
emotions <strong>and</strong> feelings as you write. Now, hold out your h<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> say: "Okay God,<br />
whoever you are, if you're there, I want you to take this hurt <strong>and</strong> irritation from me just<br />
for today. And in return, I want to feel your peace."<br />
Okay, let's go a stage further. Something happened in your life this year which caused<br />
you considerably more distress than this week's event. I don't know what it is, don't need<br />
to know, nor does anyone else. You may have been the subject <strong>of</strong> gossip which you can't<br />
correct, your partner may have been unfaithful, you may have discovered you have a<br />
terminal disease, you may have done something you are pr<strong>of</strong>oundly ashamed <strong>of</strong> <strong>and</strong> hope<br />
nobody ever finds out, you may have been sexually abused, you may have had someone<br />
close to you die, you may have been rejected or betrayed by someone you trusted would<br />
be the last person to do such a thing. Whatever it was, the result is always the same. We<br />
push it down <strong>and</strong> soldier on. Time to pull it back into the present <strong>and</strong> look at it again.<br />
Yes, that happened. How could they? How could they? And as you feel the emotions <strong>of</strong><br />
shame, revulsion, anger, hopelessness, pick up the imaginary pen again <strong>and</strong> write it<br />
quickly so nobody can see. And hold out your h<strong>and</strong>s again: "God, you have to take this<br />
from me. I can't hold onto it any longer. Take it away <strong>and</strong> in return give me peace. Just<br />
for today."<br />
Okay, you've stayed with me this far, let's cut to the chase. Something happened in your<br />
life that hurts so much, you say: "It's okay, it's nothing. I can h<strong>and</strong>le it." Or you've<br />
allowed the black mist <strong>of</strong> amnesia to take away the pain. This is the one we need to get<br />
to. This is the one that st<strong>and</strong>s in the way <strong>of</strong> our total capitulation. Never, never, never. I'll<br />
never talk about that. This is the one we need to get to. If you have the courage pick up<br />
your scalpel now <strong>and</strong> drive it deep into your heart <strong>and</strong> open it up <strong>and</strong> look at this one.<br />
Yes, that happened. Yes. How could they? And we quickly grab the imaginary pen for<br />
the last time <strong>and</strong> scribble this one on our h<strong>and</strong>. "This is it, God. Take it. Quick. This one<br />
hurts too much to hold onto for long. It happened. You might find it hard to believe. I did.<br />
But it's true. Take it. And in return I want you to give me freedom <strong>and</strong> peace <strong>and</strong> rest."<br />
I didn't see Irene that day but I met her again when I returned to Brisbane a few years<br />
later. She told me what happened that day. At lunch she broke down into silent tears. Her<br />
daughter came over to comfort her. She broke down <strong>and</strong> told the story she'd kept hidden<br />
for over 20 years. Michelle's reaction was instructive: "You mean I have a brother?"<br />
"Yes."<br />
"Well where is he? I want to meet him!"<br />
