I started a meditation, and held space for Blame.
Guilt quickly joined. At first I tried to shoo it away. But it dawned on me that there is no guilt without blame. So, I let it stay.
I continued. I sat with blame and saw defensiveness and hurt. I saw blaming others, relieved that blame was not being directed at me. I saw separation, and I saw sadness.
Eventually, I sat with blame so long that slowly, creeping out from behind it, came Love.
And I was not surprised to find it there.
