Day 57 / 100 Days to More ~

Forgive yourself and forgive others…so you can live in every dimension of your life. Practice forgiving those who have caused you pain, disappointment, or harmed you. Forgiveness is not for them. It’s for you. Forgiveness is not forgetting…it’s remembering without being full of anger or revenge, and allowing this to control you or your responses. When you forgive, you release the hold someone else’s behavior has on your mind, feelings, and actions. It allows you to free yourself from the attachments to people in your past or present that have imprisoned you, and kept you from having the life journey you were meant to live.

Give people you don’t know a fair chance. When you look at a person, any person, remember everyone has a story. Everyone has gone through something that has changed them, and forced them to grow. Every passing face on the street represents a story every bit as compelling and complicated as yours. We meet no ordinary people in our lives.   If you give someone a chance, you will know everyone has something amazing to offer. So appreciate the possibility of new relationships as you naturally let go of old ones that no longer work. Trust your judgment. Embrace new relationships, knowing that you are entering into unfamiliar territory. Be ready to learn, be ready for a challenge, and be ready to meet someone that might just change your life forever.

Action: When you let go, you get more.
