Unforgiveness

Unforgiveness suffers you.

Think about it. Why do you lie awake at night playing out scenes of unforgiveness, bitterness and hatred in your mind? Because you are unwilling to let go of the past. Who suffers? You. Do your unforgiveness and feelings of self-righteousness give you power? No. They turn you into a victim.

The thing about unforgiveness is that you resist life. You cannot be in unforgiveness and live in the present time. You will never derive maximum benefit out of each never-to-be repeated experience if you attach some part of yourself to the past.

Here's some truth that will shock some of you. If you are fixated about staying 20 and looking 20 for the rest of your life, you are in unforgiveness of yourself and life. Our spiritual beings are utilising physical form for the experience of this life. Our physical experience has a shelf life. From the time we are born we are dying. Fighting or resisting this fact is absolute folly and a waste of precious time. Time waits for no one. From birth your biological clock is in count down to your physical death.

What you need to know is that life is a kaleidoscope of continuous change. To resist that is to cause yourself deep suffering. If you don't believe me then ponder on this. What is permanent in your life? Are your relationships permanent? Is your physical body permanent? Is your career permanent? Are your outer world or circumstances permanent? Are your possessions permanent? Is there anything you can cite as permanent besides your spirit? The answer is 'no'.

The sooner you realise that all life is impermanent and is under constant change, the sooner you'll surrender and let go of unforgiveness towards yourself and others. The sooner you accept that life is what it is and it plays out as it plays out and that there are no supposed-to-be's with life; the sooner you'll release yourself from your shackles of guilt and blame.

Don't blame anyone for your inability to forgive and be in the 'now'. Get out of your egoistic attachment to the thought that you are a separate little somebody who has been singled out and dealt an injustice. It is your attachment to your ego that causes you to suffer. It is not' us' and 'them'. We are all in the sea of life. We are all like water molecules. We are not separate, nor special, nor different from each other. We all exist because of each other. We coexist so we can mirror and learn from our interactions with one another.

There is not one of us who can claim to be innocent and blameless, who has never made an error of judgement with the choices life offers us. We think things, we say things and we do things that cause  others to react badly and because they are our mirrors we realise the discomfort of our creation and we choose again. We get the chance to change our thoughts, words and deeds. It's as beautiful as that. You can't berate yourself for making mistakes. Equally you can't hold others ransom for eternity because of their misjudgements. |Life is our school. That's how we learn and awaken to the power invested in us.

So I encourage you if you're resisting ageing, fighting letting go of the thought that you have been wronged, angry with the hand life dealt you; go within and reacquaint yourself with your Spirit/God.
Spirit is the only reality, the only constant in this ever changing world of opportunities and growth.

When you give up your fight and surrender yourself to the flow you will automatically forgive and you will access gratitude for every single experience life has gifted you with.

I wish you a week of shining your conscious awareness on the blockages you have built to 'Love'.

Be the beautiful, self-loved creation you are!

love
