Clear Your Heart
Hi Everyone, I hope you are doing well. Forgiveness can be a difficult emotion to give out freely for some of us. Even when we tell ourselves we will a better person in the end. Maybe using this loving kindness meditation could help you forgive in a better state. We have all been hurt by someone, past or present. Many of us carry that hurt around longer than we should. When we continue to carry this pain, anger, resentment with us, we are really hurting ourselves. It can really keep us from living in the present and moving on. When we forgive that person, we will have more room in our heart to love. Weather you chose to meditate formally or informally bring to mind that person who hurt you and the feelings that come along with that memory. When you begin to feel the anger, the pain, notice how it makes your heart feel. Not forgiving this person can constrict your heart like a Brier growing around your heart shutting out the light. Begin to say to yourself, I forgive you for whatever hurt you may have caused me, intentionally or unintentionally to the extent I am able to. As you forgive this person you will begin to feel a weight lifted off of you. Your heart will begin to clear and make more room for the light to shine in. And where there is light, there is love and that can only be a good thing.
Thanks for visiting my blog,
Take Care,

So true! Forgiving is also good to our health because once you get off that hurt feeling, you lessen your risk of heart disease. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and your warm comment. :) Have a terrific Sunday!
I know that what you say it so very true, but sometimes, depending on the circumstances, it is just too hard to forgive.
ReplyDeleteI know I should, but it will take a lot more time and self searching before I can reach this point. But I am aiming towards it, and that counts for something.
thank you for sharing such wonderful thoughts with us, Janet. i believe that forgiveness is the most noble act that a person can do.
