Sweet Forgiveness

Many of us are challenged by the idea of forgiveness because some of the things that happen to us feel really hard to forgive. The reality is that other people are often careless, thoughtless or cruel. That being said, forgiveness is not something we do for them. It is something we do for ourselves, when we can. Feeling our feelings, stating our needs and remembering to breathe can help the forgiveness process. It is up to us to take off the burdens we put on ourselves and the burden of non forgiveness, for both self and others is a weighty one. Forgiveness for ourselves is needed when we keep replaying the times in our lives where we fell short or we fell down. We can choose to lay down our regrets and put our troubles to rest. We can choose to allow forgiveness to be sweet.
