Handling a Big
Forgiveness Challenge
by Susan Kramer
One of my biggest forgiveness challenges was a relationship
gone sour.
What
helped me reverse my bad feelings was to sit in meditation, and visualize the other
in a rising sun. I've repeated this over the years, and I'm left feeling joy
instead of negativity.
I think the
main point of forgiving is to clear space in ourselves for our fullest
experience of joy. Then we get to live our time on earth with the most inner en-joy-ment.
It is one
thing to fill our hours with fun activities, but if we do not feel inner peace,
inner joy, we have nothing left to fall back on at the end of the day.
Restoring
our heart to its natural state of joy gives us a lasting experience of heaven
while still on earth.
Reflecting on
this, I'd rather make the generous gesture of forgiving and feel joy, than waste
my time in unhappiness.
Whatever it
takes
To regain
peace and joy
Is
worth taking the time and effort.
Forgiveness recovers our joy.
