I’m talking about the ability to forgive yourself and others. Often, forgiveness is misunderstood. It is not about accepting how someone has behaved towards you or others, but the question is that when you forgive – you let it go. You no longer let it steal your power of your life. By the way, every time you think about that person or the event, you start to boil of anger or just feel bad. Why do you let the person make you sleep badly? Even if it’s just a short moment, still you let the person pollute your soul’s environment. Remember, the same applies to yourself when you think you have done something you would be ashamed, or you have done something you regret. Then remember to forgive yourself, even if you do not accept what you did, or you are ashamed of it – forgive yourself – be gracious to yourself (as you would be to a very good friend). Let go of it, don’t let it affect your life and your feelings – affect your souls surroundings. Continue your path – living your life and you know that next time you do it the other way. Even if you continue in the wrong way, forgive yourself – every time. Talk to someone about it and figure out how you can foresee the situation in advance in the future and already see it coming around the corner and be prepared in advance. Think in advance what to think, what to feel and how to react or should you just leave the situation – because you don’t know how to handle the situation. You can agree with another person in advance that the other person says a gentle word when he/she realize that it begin. We are not alone, although we are alone in this body. Still you have to live in your body with your feelings – don’t let other people set up how you should feel – you can choose them and only you are responsible for what you are feeling – not the other person that already earlier has managed to “pollute” (manipulated) you to choose bad feelings. He or she will not feel your bad feelings – you and only you are feeling your feelings. Why do you try to “not to forgive” in order to make the other person to feel like a disaster? The only one to hurt is you – you feel badly every time you think about it.
Forgive others so you can be better off, so you can let it go. As on the bridge, you let the driftwood freely flow under the bridge. Sometimes even forgiveness is not necessary, because you know and understand that it is useless to feel bad, because you know that the person didn’t understand better. You can face other persons as pure souls and not judge them. So let them be not perfect people with a beautiful soul. You can say with love that we are carved from the same tree and connected through this universe. You can love her/him, even though things didn’t go according to your plans and thoughts. Forgive yourself because you are not perfect person neither still you are already enough as you are. Don’t judge yourself because you wouldn’t had blamed your best friend for the same thing.
Forgive yourself and others – just let it flow.
