Day 155: Forgiveness Is NOT What You Think It Is

“There is nothing in our past, no pain, no regret, no crime, nothing that cannot be forgiven. But you must ask. Start with yourself.”
That was the message I received in my inbox this morning as a daily meditation from a website I subscribe to, which was sent the day after my own blog post on forgiveness. How is that for divine timing eh? I will take that as a sign that I am in the flow and back on track again.
I know I am heading in the right direction though. I have known that I am meant to travel down this path for a while now; however I just wasn’t ready before. I needed more experiential life lessons I guess. But the evidence is clear. I have more and more people asking me about it, and to be honest, I think it would be rather selfish of me not to pass on what I have learned if it can help another person.
We teach what we need to learn most, and well…let’s just say that I am still learning. I have definitely had a lot to forgive. Not as you think though. Forgiveness rarely has anything to do with the other person.
Say what?
Yes, you heard me right. Think about it awhile until I get back from my silent retreat. I am sure we will have lots to talk about when I return.
Namaste my friends.
