~ FORGIVENESS FOR YOURSELF & OTHERS ~
Have you ever been where I am now??

 Looking at yourself wondering...why did I do that?
Why did I allow another person to provoke me?

After a complete review of the situation......I see how I could have made a different choice, a better choice.

 Lesson learned...and yeah....the hard way!

We all make mistakes, we all have room for improvement.

I am certainly no exception.
Lucky for me, I never claimed to be perfect. 
I never claimed to be someone who is always right.

Today, I am faced with the task of forgiving myself.
I see the error of my ways, and I see why I did what I did.

It's over & done...now it is time to leave it behind and only carry the lesson I learned with me from this moment forward.

I thought I would share a powerful mantra on forgiveness, just in case you need a little forgiveness in your life...maybe forgiveness for  yourself....maybe forgiveness for another...maybe a bit of both.


                                      ~ Mantra ~

             " I FORGIVE EVERYONE, INCLUDING MYSELF"

"Forgiveness is one of the most powerful things you can do for yourself on the spiritual path. If you can't learn to forgive, you can forget about getting to higher leverls of awareness."
                                 Dr Wayne Dyer


Wishing you peace in your mind and peace in your heart~

Dear Dr:

We all need to remember that "there but for the Grace of God go I" and prepare to make a few more mistakes this day as we blunder through life.  We are all such frail humans and we are here to make mistakes and find better ways of doing things that are heart centered and less ego driven.  The message you bring to this post is one we all need I believe especially in these very difficult times.  Blessings of peace and joy to you

The funny thing about life is that we so frequently assume that the actions or sad lack thereof are about *us* when issues arise when most of the time they are about the person themselves. We all are conditioned from birth a certain way ( and yes the nature v nurture debate rages on ) to deal with situations and our own coping devices may not ( and rarely do) meet the expectations of others..Self knowledge is key and the sad part is not forgiving someone is hardest on yourself..

Joan & Rosie,

Thank you ladies for stopping by and adding your insight on this subject :)

I agree with you both about acting from the heart. That is the saving grace I have regarding this lesson. I followed my heart and spoke it. I am who I am. Others are who they are. Funny the whole issue started with compassion & understanding...and those 2 qualities are here again. They are key qualities in my humble opinion.
Blessings to both of you wonderful ladies :)

Morning - yes it all starts with self and the heart which funny enough is an anagram - I wonder of other languages if it is the same...HMMMM (heart - earth.....) isn't that beautiful! All you need is love....
incidently assume is a great word (humbling also because of the break up of the word and the truth of the fingers back at us...sigh. I know I wrote about that specifically on wiccan princess blog. Humans being human...sigh.
All we need is love.....
(I called keen yesterday about why my blogs whon't work...they get the same error, so checking into it on monday...)

I have been in that place more times than I care to remember, but finally I am understanding that it is through being there I am learning to stop going there.  I have learnt from recent events to sit back and wait, and I try to look to myself if I am about to point out anothers behaviour to them and see if that behaviour is also in me, I am learning to take my time instead of taking their time.  I don't always get it right, but life is a learning curve is it not.

Trinity,

Yes it is a learning curve. I am a perpetual student in the school of life :)

Thank you for sharing your genuine insight & experience.

I see the error of my ways, admit them, and then try with all I have not to repeat them.

Words and meaning don't always come across clearly via blog.
Live & learn....such is life!

Today, the toxic energy continues for some...but not for me.

I am introspective ...I am looking at my part, my responsibility, me honoring myself to the best of my ability.

Light & Love
