Thought Of The Day - Forgiveness

Thought Of The Day - Forgiveness

Some people think that forgiveness is overrated. After all, why should we let someone off the hook for wrongdoing? We generally face issues that requires us to forgive someone. But doing so doesn't absolve the guilty person of responsibility for their actions. That's up to them to deal with and manage. We need to be careful that we don't mix up forgiveness with saying that something wrong is okay. Think of forgiveness as giving ourselves permission to let it all go, and to feel good again. We deserve that.

Thought of the Day - Do's and Don'ts

Thought of the Day - Do's and Don'ts

Don't scratch the itch. Don't intensify the argument. Don't put fuel on the fire of conflict. Don't nurse the grudge. Don't indulge the emotion. Don't dwell on the resentment. I know that's an awful lot of "don'ts". 

Here now, are some "do's" to balance them out. Do look on the bright side. Do be willing to forgive (but not to forget). Do seek a constructive way forward. Do let go and move on. Do expect heavenly help. 

Do all this... and what really needs to happen next in every area of our lives - will occur perfectly and naturally.
