Forgive the hurts (by HigherAwareness.com)

"Forgiveness will never fail to free you." -- Jerrold Mundis

How do we forgive when we’re angry and hurt?

As a first step, we can be willing to truly feel our anger and hurt. Honouring our feelings by being fully present with them helps to release the feelings themselves.

And it helps to remember that people only hurt others when they themselves are in pain. When we can recognize the other person’s suffering, our heart can open in compassion. We can also remember that at some time or another, we too have hurt someone through our own unskilful action.

Only love can heal the rifts caused by a hurtful deed. Forgiveness holds immense power because it mends separation. It moves us towards the unity and love that lie at the core of our being. It is a fundamental part of the healing process.

"Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future." -- Paul Boese

Thnaks Paul. I find forgiveness truly diffucult, but once I was able to forgive from my heart it was very relieving, it was like turning the page and being able to move on in my life. It does free you from the burden of carrying on the heavy feelings of unfairness and resentment, which do no good to us.

You said it, it's like climbing up to a whole other level, indeed :)

it's always refreshing hear this theme.

forgiveness is like.....climbing up to a whole other 'level'.

trying to figure things out can be so exhausting & labor intensive.

but somehow Love is above all that !
