\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
When I think of all of the experiences of my life and all of\u00a0the people I have met, I want to experience the smile of compassion and\u00a0understanding that we are all doing the best we can.\u00a0 <\/span>I want to stay present in the loving moments\u00a0that were shared. I want to remember the love felt and shared is real. I\u00a0want everything that isn\u2019t loving therefore not true, to wash away like so much\u00a0chaff or straw disintegrating into the forgiveness that is my treasure chest of\u00a0truth revealing the stash of love and joy and peace.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As the past and the future do not exist, bringing an open\u00a0hearted forgiving wash over all that is not present allows us to make space and\u00a0create extraordinary levels of peace filled grace.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cManifestation begins with the willingness to make room in\u00a0our beliefs for something that doesn’t exist. We create that “something”\u00a0through the force of consciousness and awareness.”\u00a0 Gregg Braden \u00a0This force of consciousness allows forgiveness to flower into healing the soul of humanity.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Let\u2019s take a moment to enter and awaken a level of\u00a0forgiveness you have to this point not thought possible.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Take a moment to drift into that deeply personal space of\u00a0your heart. Take this moment to say, “I’m sorry” for any wounds\u00a0inflicted; for the fallout (literally) and for any ways we have, in our actions\u00a0overlooked the basic tenants of humanity.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Lets together deeply connect to the space beyond all sorrow\u00a0and trauma and heartache diving into the waves of forgiveness allowing the\u00a0gentle washing away of all that burdens our minds.\u00a0 <\/span>Let\u2019s connect to our loving center and\u00a0imagine a world of love and possibility and freedom. Imagine those who come to mindsight joining you\u00a0in celebration and declare all that was complete and healed and whole. \u00a0<\/span>Reconnect to your loving center and bow into\u00a0your soul before all that is and become a new wave of forgiveness; allow this
\nwave of forgiveness to caress whoever has come to mind that needs this wave of\u00a0love, allow this wave of love to flow freely from center and watch it embrace those in\u00a0need and those we cherish and those we don\u2019t know and the world at large, flowing into\u00a0the ethers of the universe. Rest and relax and know all is well and all will\u00a0be well and return once again to center, the source of all the love there ever was, all the\u00a0miracles that are possible, and all the joy that resides in the purest laugh of\u00a0the smiling heart.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Become present to the beat of your heart and allow that beat to guide the way to deeper and deeper levels of peace.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Come back to center. \u00a0Say Thank You.***<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Forgiveness does not mean forgetting\u00a0it means transforming any anger and releasing that which can no longer torture\u00a0us collectively and individually into the nothingness from whence it came. That which is in the past is an illusion, it doesn\u2019t\u00a0exist, and can no longer hurt us. Forgiveness means honoring yourself, your history, and\u00a0those who have touched your life by living yours in full emblem of the truest\u00a0space of a Loving heart.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
From this embraced forgiveness comes the complete Freedom of thinking\u00a0that is the foundation of strength and joy. \u00a0<\/span>In choosing to forgive and honor each other\u00a0with Love; to celebrate our humanity and\u00a0to remember all of us is each of us, the world gains in its peace quotient,\u00a0which should never be taken for granted.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In this forgiving practice of humanity Love expands beyond the beyond.\u00a0 If this speaks to you take this moment to s<\/span>eize the opportunity to imagine a vision of\u00a0the future where peace flourishes and everyone on the planet knows Love.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This is a form of Love as philosophy, not used to circumvent any feelings or\u00a0bypass anything just a sharing of principle as a practice of discipline to\u00a0allow the truth through forgiveness to be revealed where the illu-sions creep\u00a0in.\u00a0 <\/span>Loving is filling your heart\u00a0with love in open hearted grace ourselves overflowing with childlike\u00a0wonder of life filled with blazing possibility.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Forgiveness is the home of miracles. Perception stands corrected in this Loving sight, and what was meant to curse has come\u00a0to be a blessing. “Each lily of forgiveness offers all the world the silent miracle of\u00a0love. And each is laid before the Word, upon the universal altar to Creator and\u00a0creation in the light of perfect purity and endless joy.” ACIM<\/div>\n

When the sun breaks through the\u00a0darkness of a new day give thanks for the joys of freedom and abundance we do\u00a0have and to extend love to those you encounter.<\/div>\n
