Radical forgiveness means
Realising that everything that happens is for
Our Development
For
Our growth in Spirit
Our journey planned before we arrived on earth.
Radical Forgiveness is
Understanding that all we go through
is what we CAN cope with
All we go through is
making us the person
we were destined to be
Radical forgiveness
is underatanding that the person committing the crime
has no control over their actions
for they are a pawn in your journey of life.
Radical Forgiveness gives you release
Lets you go free.
Holding no grudge
Feeling no Hate
Understanding the journey.
Life can be a blessing when we throw anger out the window.
Without hate, anger and looking back, we grow and move forward.
There is no YESTERDAY, There is no TOMORROW,
There is only today and when we live to the fullest TODAY, we
waste no time in something that is not there.
Through the release of any condemnation, we can feel pity and acceptance. It may not always be easy, true, but it is invigorating and empowering.
You are now the master of your situation. In control. The skilled and experienced master of each TODAY. Live it, Love it and learn a new lesson of victory in it.
Start each day in gratitude for what you have and what you hold dear.
Count just how many things you have to be grateful for. Say thank you for each and every one of them.
Live for TODAY.....Be Great in TODAY.....Help someone if you can....and make every second of TODAY count with positive affirmations for who you are...
Bless you.

Truly Supportive and Therapeutic!
You took time to share your wisdom with those precious souls who are looking for hope. I want to add to your very thorough and insightful post the following:
To experience anger, quilt, and even hatred, which is often worse, for it turns to self-hate, are all part of the process towards healing. These are negative, but human responses to devastating acts of abuse ... Before forgiveness is possible, one has to acknowledge the feelings of hurt, and has to place the blame where it is: at the abuser. Only then can true healing begin.
A most wondrous and definite help in healing, is when the abuser can ask the forgiveness of the abused. Unfortunately this is often not possible because the abuser may be dead, or unwilling to cooperate, and sometimes unwilling to admit the abuse. Fear for the abuser may silence the victim and may hinder healing, so we have to encourage and support the abused souls to tell their stories, by giving them the opportunity to say their heart. Exactly like this contest is doing!
Thank you SO MUCH once again for your labor of love and your gentle but powerful guidance. We are fortunate to have you.
Love

"There is no YESTERDAY, There is no TOMORROW,

This part really stood out for me. I recognise your name; is it you that suggested for Gerald to join this site? You run a group for online counselling, I think, do you? If I have wrong person, apologies.
Enjoyed reading this; some great advise in there

Hi and thanks for commenting.
Yes you have the right person.

So much of this is true though really, the person who hurts you is not "a pawn in your life" but a person separate from you with their own sometimes very horrific hangups. But you are right that they often have no control over their actions. More to be pitied than scorned, I suppose.
Like what you said.

SO BEAUTIFULLY INSPIRING!!!
To forgive a terrible experience in treatment from another or something another may have said or done is the right thing to do always. It is though one of the hardest things to do as our tendency is to keep those memories and hate in our minds and hearts. I have forgave many people and things in my life and found that after the choice was made my happiness and love was returned to me many times over.
