A space where you can hear everything that is in service to a beautiful garden of your being. Living from that space delivers a life to its purpose. Clearing the hurts and the shame and the attachment to what someone did to you and then explaining how they wronged you for years is the surest way to remaining on the cross of your own personally inflicted crucifixion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Are you ready right now to release yourself by truly allowing God and that universal force of creation to ease the burden by giving it over? The true joy of each day is waking up in full knowing today is a day where I will live a new day. A magnificent day. A day of absolute love for myself and the world I inhabit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Detach from the person, object, relationship or circumstance that seems to be causing you troubles, release the thinking that seems to keep you stuck in the drama of the situation and listen for an answer. Remember, stuck is just another word for there is another way. Whether it is to break free from the falseness of anyone or anything that is too small for you, or it is to think Lovingly about the situation presenting and deeply listen to what is in your heart whatever the answer no matter how it sounds because it is your answer, uniquely individualized for your circumstance. Listen as if your life depended on it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Don\u2019t let other people hook you into their unloving fearful thinking tempting you out of your loving center. If something sounds judgmental it is. If it sounds nuts. If it feels crazy making. If you feel tense. You got it. When a decision is built on fear \u201cits seeming certainty is but a cloak for the uncertainty it would conceal. It needs irrational defense because it is irrational. And its defense seems strong, convincing, and without a doubt because of all the doubting underneath.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Do not get caught in other people\u2019s insanity, or more importantly, your own. Wash the entire story with Love and bare witness to the truth. When a decision is made in Love doubt ceases. Love brings peace of mind and a certainty of purpose. Move toward that sacred feeling of warmth in the embrace of the truth. Move toward the light of Love.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Don&#8217;t be tempted to forget your mission to forgive everyone as you move freely into your own inner peace. True and complete forgiveness emanates when you make a commitment to forgive and be forgiven. As ACIM says forgiveness offers everything you need.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Forgiveness is the way you remember nothing is going to harm you. Give it over and take your place in the land of love. Accept forgiveness for yourself and everyone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Enter the sacredness of your truest home, that space where love and forgiveness meets an open heart becoming a soulful force of nature. Become today someone who is full and rich and free of the past judgments and dramas and struggles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Take charge of your life. Take a stand for forgiveness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">May I give up what has happened to me and leap quantum style into forgiveness laying aside blame.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">LOVE IT!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">With Infinite Love and Gratitude<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wholelottaloveland.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/11\/how-to-teach-your-children-to-forgive-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1479\" src=\"https:\/\/wholelottaloveland.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/11\/how-to-teach-your-children-to-forgive-1.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"how-to-teach-your-children-to-forgive-1\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Today is DAY 46 MEL\u2019S LOVE LAND #NEXT100\u00a0FORGIVENESS FOR THE TAKING<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">For more information check out\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.melanielutz.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.melanielutz.com<\/a>\u00a0all systems love AND if you want to get INVOLVED Take Mel\u2019s Love Land Pledge!!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">(Repeat after Me)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>For the #Next100 Days I am going to consider the possibility there is another way\u2026.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>(add whatever \u2018feels right, because whatever follows there is another way will be the direction that you set \u2013 make it count)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\u2026I won&#8217;t carry a grudge, I will forgive easily.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t take anything personally, Whatever happens I will shake it off and be my most loving self.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will enjoy relaxing into the present moment and watch miracles unfold.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t stand paralyzed in inaction, I will open my heart and take loving action.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t squash my voice, I will sing my song.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t worry about anything I will do what needs to be done.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will let love liberate my heart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will let love completely feast on my life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t spin out, I will choose to take a beat and breathe, just breathe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t judge success or failure. \u00a0I will celebrate my effort and action.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will listen and stay open to the loving action that needs to be taken<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will encourage others to fly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t stay asleep, I will awaken to the truth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will take flight into the possibility of the present moment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will see the truth shining through each heart I meet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will follow my still small voice in owning what I know<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will let love lead the way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I will savor the fruits of my labor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t stay stuck in my story, I will quite simple love the adventure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t shy away from what needs to be done. \u00a0I will impact every situation with love.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t listen to sounds of discontent. \u00a0I will harmonize in my happiest self.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t test anyone or anything trying to prove a point. \u00a0I will have acceptance and forgiveness for who I am, right now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I won\u2019t hide in the shadows.
