In the DreamWorks animation movie “Shrek”, the star of the movie, Shrek, explains to Donkey that ogres are like onions. Donkey assumes he means that ogres are smelly, to which Shrek replies and says ogres have layers.

It appears to me that we as humans are much the same. Every time I write about myself, to myself, or for myself, I discover something new. Like a layer underneath the previous layer that I was blissfully unaware of. Sometimes it is a pleasant surprise and other times I am a little shocked.

When I wrote to my dad, who passed away a few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised with all the positive memories that came to me after I worked through all the other emotions.

At first it was very challenging as I was very angry with my dad and was very disappointed about a lot of things that happened. All the negative emotions blurred my vision of who my dad really was and I was blinded by resentment.

It was very difficult to write it all out, but I am very glad that I stuck it out and went through with it. I cried a lot in the process. However, all is well that ends well. After going through the challenging process I now think of my dad in the most positive way with the fondest of memories.

I think that the Master Key Experience will be much the same too.

I am already experiencing weird and wonderful emotions. I’m sitting with a lot of the same emotions towards myself that I felt for my dad. I am angry about all the dumb stuff that I’ve said and done over the years. I have a lot of regret and resentment towards myself for mistakes I made.

The good thing is that I am looking forward to breaking through all these negative layers to get to the good underneath all the layers of bull. I know I’m not a total failure. I think I just lost a little bit of the real me somewhere along the journey of life.

I know that life is an unfoldment and I cannot wait to unfold the best in me. I cannot wait to look at myself the same way I now look at my dad: My unbreakable, unstoppable, super hero!
