Hello,
As we started to discuss yesterday, forgiveness is letting go of hurt or wrong.
We also said it was easy to find someone who feels hurt or offended deliberately keeping the offender around in a bid to show off how well they are doing even while wronged. It becomes a deliberate attempt to pay back by doing better. This is a miserable experiment doomed to fail from the start and at worst inflict further injuries on the offended party.
Why get hurt twice?
Everything will not go wrong with a person simply because they offended you. It will not also all turn out right because you were offended and you feel karma should swing into action.
The Cure: What do champions know?
A person who has hurt you (no matter how deeply) will forget about it sooner than the one who has been offended. The Offender will have more time to ruminate on making other plans and have a 'no heart ache' bonus but the offended party will constantly have the offence in sight waiting for the right moment to pay back or for the law of karma to take effect so they can smile and say 'got ya'.
Karma is a lady, she takes her time to prepare. The more you pester her, the less interested she becomes.
When you put on your swag by forgiving the offender, you look cool and boy! does she dig cool!
It affords you the opportunity to move on with your life not being tied to one event or a series of events and become the best you can be (and NO, not because you are comparing yourself with someone small enough to have hurt you BUT because there is enough soaring space in your head & heart).
If are religious, it saves you from disobeying one commands of our faith and positions you for good.
(As an aside, I wonder who could possibly offend Albert Eistein, Aristotle, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela & Bill Gates enough to hold in their heart without forgiveness)
SEARCH YOUR HEART FOR THAT OFFENDER AND DO WHAT CHAMPIONS DO... FREE UP SOARING SPACE
