Forgiveness

It's hard to do but it's crucial for leading an emotionally healthy life. When you do it you get wonderful benefits. An energetic weight lifts off you and your world view expands and space is created in your mind and spirit into which positive loving emotions can now move. It can be hard, you think, "Why do I have to do all the work when I'm not the one who did anything wrong?" Forgiveness is hard. The truth is, you forgive for yourself, not them. What usually happens is that the wrong-doer in question has probably moved on and doesn't even think that you're still stewing over this or that. Plus, all you do by continuously thinking about it is to give away your power. So for your own sake, let it go. When you forgive, you will feel a weight lift off of you because you've cleared away some crap and created space to invite healing and happiness in, and it feels wonderful. I say from my personal experiences of forgiveness that it's always darkest before the light. Right before I'm ready for the release and to forgive, I feel suffocated and consumed by the issue and think there is no way I can do it. After several experiences like this I'm now aware of what's going on and intend/affirm it will all move a bit faster and be effortless, and it is. Try a visualization or meditation.
