Forgiveness
Yesterday i had an healthy discussion on whatsApp about Forgiveness......
Whether after forgiving one should re connect with the person who keeps hurting you repeatedly ???
My revealation ......
It
is time to forgive so you can lighten your soul and enjoy your
relationships.
Forgiveness can bring back innocence and maturity, and
return life to a state of love, compassion, ease and joy!
Forgiveness
lightens your soul and the soul you are holding grievances towards.
Forgiveness is simply reconnection.
This does not necessarily mean you
need to always physically reconnect with others though.
Boundaries and
discernment for what you need, especially when you are feeling fragile
are just as important as forgiveness.
Reconnection can mean reconnection
to your higher self so you are able to have compassion for the mistakes
of others and for the mistakes that you make.
With forgiveness, you can
recognize the innocence of everyone, knowing that the rate of growth
happens at different speeds for individuals.
In
forgiveness we are gentle towards our youth, compassionate with the
elderly, empathetic with those who struggle, and tolerant of the ‘wrong
doers’…. sometime in your life, you will be all of these.
Mercy
is blessing others with our compassion and forgiveness (as long as
there are no feelings or thoughts of superiority).
Justice is giving
people what they deserve...mercy is giving them more.
When we have the
humility to remember the countless mercies we receive throughout our
life, we find the ability in our heart to show mercy to others.
Sometimes we fear forgiveness
because we feel justified in our grievance, and if we forgave, we think
we may become victims of further wounding.
The truth is we were never
victims of wounding.
We attract these difficult experiences so we can
develop our awareness, or understanding, for our own growth.
Often
our lack of forgiveness is really about what we haven’t forgiven
ourselves for.
If we look close enough we will see we are actually doing
(or have done) the same to others, or to ourselves.
You may say to
yourself, “I’d never act like THAT!” but perhaps the extreme act that
someone did was to jolt you awake to the same or lesser acts you have
done in the past; even the far distant past (or life times) that you did
not make amends for.
You can free yourself and others by making a deep heartfelt apology
for a wrong that you may have inflicted upon another.
Also you can see
the actions of others as repressed part of yourself that needs to come
into balance.
For example; your partner ignores or dismisses your ideas –
this can be used to your advantage by increasing your ability to become
more assertive.
True forgiveness is
saying we don't want the past to be any different.
Forgiving people and
thanking them for the experience and lessons they gave us will release
us all so we can live full and happy lives!
You’ve
reading this today to understand the importance of forgiveness.
Without forgiveness, you create distance and superiority.
Forgiveness is
a choice, and the power to change your situation is in your hands - and
in your heart.
