Forgiveness

[Guest guest]

"As long as you don't forgive, who and whatever it is will occupy

rent-free space in your mind."

 

-- Isabelle Holland

 

We cannot avoid daily resentment and thoughts of guilt. They are a part

of human nature. What we can do is release their grip on us. We can

forgive others and ourselves daily.

 

Forgiveness requires nothing in return. There are no conditions. It

gets rid of old baggage and clears up unfinished business. It leads us to

a life of authenticity, lightness and directness. Forgiveness is the

highest form of letting go of resentment and ego.

 

True forgiveness is more than an apology, understanding and acceptance.

There is an element of recreating and re-imagining. There is a need to

envision ourselves as more loving, interdependent, courageous and

compassionate. Forgiveness requires honouring the sacred journey of learning

about life - our life and others'.

 

"Whatever we have done, we can always make amends for it without ever

looking back in guilt or sorrow."
