Forgiveness

Many definitions of forgiveness are taught and practiced.
Much resistance and misunderstanding of its function persist.
However, forgiveness will “save” us from all pain and suffering, anxiety and conflict in life.
“I forgive everyone and everything for all time, including myself.”

Let us imagine that it is guilt and blame that perpetuate the ills, mistakes and misunderstandings.
Let us consider that by continuing to allow ourselves and others to be attacked is our essential error.
Let us look at the possibility that when we correct, judge, condemn and punish, we are attacking.
Let us respect our calling to love and notice when and with whom we are withholding our Love.

Whenever we stop, suspend, and diminish our love, we are attacking our identity.
When we deny ourselves or our brothers and sisters our love, we are withholding our Essence.
When we deny the Truth of Who we are, we forget We Are Love Itself, here to give Love.
The only mistake we make is when we forget to Love.

Forgiveness is a gift to ourselves.
Forgiveness sets us free from pain and misery.
Forgiveness sees no evil, hears no evil and speaks no evil.
Forgiveness is the healing balm for all wounds of heart and mind.
Forgiveness brings us joy and hope and love.
Forgiveness opens the door to unconditional love.
Forgiveness heals separation and fear.
Forgiveness offers a new perspective.
Forgiveness is a choice to see things differently.
Forgiveness clears all mistakes instantly.
Forgiveness is the key to lasting happiness and peace.
Forgiveness sees beyond the surface to the essence of Love.
Forgiveness forgets the past, because it is no longer here.
Forgiveness releases all blocks to Love, trust and freedom.
Forgiveness recognizes the higher Truth in everyone.
Forgiveness undoes all errors in my mind.
Forgiveness allows us to shine our light in the world awakening other minds.

Let us forgive to clear the canvas of life that we might have new beginnings and choose again.
Let us forgive all things so that we can fully and freely love and let go.
Let us forgive ourselves, so that we no longer encourage or invite others to err.
Let us forgive the errors of humanity so that we can learn to undo what is not true.

Guilt and blame only encourage others to do the same.
Forgiveness sets us free to choose again for a better way.
Loving us all with forgiveness, so that you and I can choose for trust, freedom and Love,
