FORGIVE | You'll feel better.
FORGIVENESS 💙 | Self-Forgiveness
Have you ever blamed yourself for anything before? Were you at fault? Have you done something to yourself or someone which caused feelings of guilt, shame, or wrongdoing? You're not alone. Most of us have had many experiences with such emotions.
Some of you don't recall or even know why the pressure of guilt surrounds your life. Ask yourself what was so awful, you didn't allow forgiveness. Do you remember? Does the thought cause pain or make you feel less than? Listen to the self forgiveness affirmation and consider a pardon.
Wondering when to forgive? Right now. It's time to forgive and understand why you feel such a way so you may unleash negative feeling about yourself, about the situation, or about someone. It's time to acknowledge, absolve, accept, and act accordingly. Acknowledge the emotion or pain (I feel shameful/guilty because...). Absolve yourself (I am freeing myself of...). If you need to cry, cry. If you want to scream, scream. Get some fresh air if you need to. Do what is necessary to relieve and release. Accept what is, then give yourself consent to mend your heart, rehabilitate, and feel better. Act accordingly (Listen to the Selfish Mindset Affirmations 💙, pray 🙏, or choose another healthy remedy) to help you move forward.
Remember: If we continue to hold on to pain, it will continue to hurt us. Let it go!
"I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It's a gift you give yourself." - T.D. Jakes
When we learn to forgive, we forgive. In other words, when you learn to forgive yourself, you will forgive others. Give it a try, it doesn't cost anything but effort.
"Forgiveness does not mean ignoring what has been done or putting a false label on an evil act. It means, rather, that the evil act no longer remains as a barrier to the relationship. Forgiveness is a catalyst creating the atmosphere necessary for a fresh start and a new beginning." - Martin Luther King Jr.
Love yourself. Choose greater. Live in peace.
"We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive, is devoid of the power to love." - Martin Luther King Jr.
