I wish you forgiveness,
both the power to forgive and the wisdom and strength to seek
forgiveness. One of the most powerful forces in the
world, forgiveness frees us from anger, resentment, and the
lack of peace that results from these emotions.

Forgiveness allows us to move on with our lives, leaving the
mistakes of the past where they belong--in our pasts rather
than in our present. I
wish you the ability to see clearly when it's important for you to
ask forgiveness for the hurts that you might have caused
others. Often, we don't clearly see the results of our own
actions, and others suffer needlessly, wondering why we've done
what we've done. We often can clear the air and clear our
lives and ease our minds with a simple apology, but we need to
know when such an apology is necessary, and when one will be
helpful.

I
wish you the graciousness and the grace to accept apologies when
they are offered sincerely. Such forgiveness is important
both for yourself and the person who is apologizing; refusal to
accept an apology affects you more than it affects the person who
is apologizing. Accepting apologies is another way of saying
"I am ready to move on with my life, and I am ready to put
behind me the things that belong there." Forgiveness is
one of the strongest healing forces in the world, and it must not
be asked for or accepted lightly or without sincerity; it must
also not be rejected when offered sincerely. |

Forgiveness
is an act of love. As I forgive, I release negative energy that
may manifest as resentment or anger. I open the way for something
positive
to happen. If I feel wronged or annoyed, I release the impulse to
judge. The
lines of communication remain open, and understanding flows
freely. Relationships
with family, friends and colleagues flourish when I act with compassion
and
easily forgive. I relate to others in harmonious ways. I
exercise the same
forgiving attitude toward myself. If I have erred, I learn from it
and move on.
I draw from the reservoir of God's love within me to give and receive
forgiveness.
