Old grudges

Loving myself means....

 

I forgive everyone.

 

Holding onto a grudge is harmful to me...

 

it closes off my heart...

 

keeps me stuck in judgement...

 

robs me of the freedom...

 

to be truly happy....

 

and at peace with others.

 

If I have a hard time forgiving...

it may not be about the other person...

but more about my ability to forgive myself.

I will remember...

 

 that everyone is doing their best...

 

no one is perfect...

 

especially me.

He who is devoid of the power to forgive
is devoid of the power to love.

~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

*****

The practice of forgiveness is our most important
contribution to the healing of the world.
