Forgive doesn't mean forget - always!

 


Forgive doesn't mean forget - always!




Healing a relationship doesn’t mean accepting them back in our life. No! not always. It depends on the harm the other has caused us and others in our lives. Sometimes, it is an irreparable loss. When we heal, we don’t let them enter our lives. We just forgive them. Not because they deserve it, but because we deserve so much better than them in our life. As long as we are stuck with resentment towards them, we can’t move forward, so we heal ourselves. We heal and forgive them. So that, we can move forward – without them too in many cases. But that doesn't mean we forget what they did or who they are and bring them back to life. Sometimes, these people won't and don't want to change and they can only harm us in every way possible. Then, forgive them but don't bring them back in life. Forget them too but not the lesson they taught you. 


We have forgiven them. They no longer harm us emotionally. They can’t hurt us in our memory with what they did to us. That’s where it all ends. We also can bless them for a better clarity of thought in their life. But then, that ends there, for some relationships. If we have healed completely that relationship and learned all that we need to from it then we move on from them. If we have cleared our debts with them, then they no longer are part of our present life and next life too for sure. They fall off our lives as a ripe fruit falls off the tree it is held to. However much the fruit wants to hold on, it can’t. Even if the tree wishes to hold on to it, it can’t. That’s nature! So is the case with relationships too.

So don’t worry about those relationships that are bitter and painful. If you are holding on to your side of healing sincerely and without any malice in heart, then once the debt is cleared and the lesson learned, they move on. But, if you are still full of hatred for them, you’ll be wedded to them not only in this life but also in next lives to come. In this life even if you move away from them after a bitter fight, if you haven’t healed, then they will enter your life for sure either in this life or the next life – for sure – till you have healed it completely. This syllabus is something that no one can cheat on.




So, the sensible ones heal and get it over with in this very life so that they don’t have to face the same painful relationships again in any of their future lives.

Points to ponder:     

  • Forgiveness is a must for our growth. 
  • Forgiveness is not a word. It is an action word. It takes years at times to forgive what one has done to us. Some can forgive with just a thought and a little understanding. But all that depends on the individual. 
  • To forgive we need to work on our hurt, resentment, anger and related feelings and emotions, every single day of our life. We need to heal them layer by layer. But commitment to heal should be our ultimate resolve.
  • To forgive doesn't mean act as if nothing happened. It may not happen in some cases. Then move on, just don't carry the hurt within and hatred for that person/s. That is called forgiveness.
  • Never forget what that person has done and don't let that person enter your life again - if that person is toxic and hasn't changed for better.
  • Accept the other person only if he genuinely seeks forgiveness and pleads for it. He should repent his actions and words. Then such person can be taken back in your life.
  • If the person is not shameful for what he said or did, then DON'T take him back. 
  • The one who takes him back should be so strong that he is not hurt by the other's actions which will eventually be hurting him once again - as he hasn't changed for better.

1. I waited for someone’s message, at night also I didn’t get that msg, I felt upset and didn’t sleep properly some uneasiness, because my negligence through I didn’t get that messsage. I went to temple came to home looked at my phone, I didn’t get, I went to office moody I saw my phone I received a msg in that moment my body felt very lite like a cotton it’s a happiness I got tears.

this poem strike on my mind.
నీవే తల్లివి తండ్రివి
నీవే నాతోడు నీడ నీవే సఖుడౌ
నీవే గురుడవు దైవము
నీవే నా పతియు గతియు నిజముగ కృష్ణా !

Neeve Gurudavu Daivamu,
Neeve naa pathiyu gathiyu nijamuga Krishna

Hi,
Few days back I was on this crossroad.
Had to decide if I should continue accepting the same treatment or just move on. Very hard decision to make.
But seeing the situation and the so called unpredictable future I decided to go along with it. Yes you have said it right mam I need lots of strength to take that decision and also live along with it.
But healing is helping me. I can feel the way I am talking, way I am approaching the situation. Even if anger is there my tone has got better.
Healing healing healing. I can feel a change a difference every thing different though things are same around me. I have changed (I have evolved)

Thank you thank you mam.
