A Vision for True Forgiveness

Here's a letter we received recently that cuts to the core of so many issues facing the people of the world today. It came to us from Michelle Matthau from Los Angeles, CA. Thank You, Michelle. This one is wonderful!

MY VISION THAT THE TRUE MEANING AND TRANFORMATIVE NATURE OF "FORGIVENESS" BE UNDERSTOOD

My prayers and vision for every being in this Universe is for true Soul Freedom! We are assured this freedom as we all understand the true meaning and transformative nature of "forgiveness".

"Forgiveness" is not an action that condones wrongful behavior allowing others, or ourselves, to skip mindful responsibility. No! True forgiveness is the soulful understanding and release of the baser energies of anger, bitterness, resentment and even victim consciousness, that keep us prisoners in those same lower vibrations. By continuing to hate or judge that which we feel is wrong, we actually keep ourselves stuck in the magnetism of those lower energies. BUT, as we "forgive" or let go of those emotions, we release our hearts from the tyranny of those harmful vibrations, allowing our consciousness to soar and manifest the good we truly desire and deserve!

True forgiveness gives us the means by which each and every one of us can take charge of our own energy and therefore our own lives. We can never again be held hostage to outside hate, greed, manipulation, bullying or fear. We are only and completely in charge of our own action and our own experience. What an amazing freeing feeling that is and what a wonderful world that will bring. That is a world where we are free to manifest from our highest good.

My vision is for THAT world, where "forgiveness" is truly understood and pain and suffering of any kind can be eliminated from our experience. I envision that world where every being has the freedom and ability to reckon and resolve their own thinking and behavior. That is my vision of a world of true Soul Freedom! I imagine and hold that vision in my heart for us all!
