DO YOU REMEMBER HOW IT FEELS TO FORGIVE TOMORROW?

This question set me free. I believe there are 3 things that don’t rely on the bounds of time: Love Nostalgia Forgiveness If we can learn to remember the feeling of forgiveness - the release of emotional burden - before something has even happened it allows us to let go of any expectation for ourselves or others to let us down. I got to a point where I forgave my wrongdoers of their past actions only to realize that I wasnt healed when they’d repeat a pattern. in forgiving tomorrow I release the expectation (without excusing action) to be let down. it’s a choice to accept them (me) as they (I) are (am).

FORGIVENESS

It’s easier said than done but forgiveness is key to accepting someone else’s flawed humanity and in turn recognising and accepting your own. There’s a feeling of serenity that comes with letting go of things that have already happened. We only ever truly have this moment anyway. Why are you here?

forgiveness

Living life independent of grudges, while often difficult, is an essential component of spiritual freedom. Forgiving those who have hurt you allows for positive connections to be fully received with an open heart. Forgiving yourself protects you from the burden of toxic shame, and allows you to look forward to the prospect of self-improvement.

forgiveness is as much an act for yourself as it is for the person you‘re forgiving

first things first: u never have to forgive someone if u don’t want to. sometimes there is no reason to not move on from a situation, but that’s still your right. you should take all the time u need to make peace with urself and what happened. my dad once told me that the worst thing you can do to urself is to wish someone else ill will. giving ur energy and thoughts to a situation or person in a way that doesn’t help you process what happened, but only serves to make u upset, is a disservice to urself and ur time. u deserve to be happy and u deserve peace. look of it as a way of letting go of the negative thoughts and emotions that that situation causes u. forgiving someone doesn’t necessarily mean ur justifying what they did, but instead respecting ur right to be happy. u can forgive someone and still not continue that relationship with them. seeing forgiveness as a way to allow urself to grow past a situation and not define urself by it, instead of as a mandatory ritual after someone has wronged you, has helped me to move past people and situations that have hurt me and kept me from growing.
