If you have ever thought that you have been terrible wronged by someone and you are holding a grudge – this is a problem that is causing you hurt and pain. To release that hurt and pain, you have to forgive the person who has hurt you.
I have been through this experience myself and I will tell you the way I did it. You may need someone to help you but it is necessary to release these painful feelings and move forward and enjoy the life you were meant to live.
I had to forgive members of my family for the hurt I had experienced as a child. Both of my parents have passed so my only way of conversing with them was while meditating. During my meditation session, I took myself back to the age in my childhood when I believed the pain started. The scene was something totally different to where I had lived as a child – the scene was like a Grecian garden with beautiful trees and green grass underfoot and beautiful marble benches to sit on. People were dressed in long flowing clothes.
I had a long conversation with both of my parents and told them how I felt and we talked about many things. After I had gone through everything that I wanted to say – I told them I forgave them both and I would not be visiting them again.
I opened my eyes thinking that this whole scenario had lasted about 15 minutes – can you imagine my surprise when I realized that it was 90 minutes!!
The past is the past, and it can not be changed, the future is just that but it is what you plan to do with it that counts but now is the present and the present is what you give yourself.
