How To Forgive and Let Go of The Past

http://yourguidetogreatness.com It is very possible that the concept of forgiveness may be the most misunderstood and underutilized skill in the human experience. In the Greek language, forgiveness is the same word as release or letting go. This definition conjures up sensations of liberation, capitulation and freedom. On paper, it reads like a natural and benevolent process something one freely GIVES to another to release yourself and others from the past. In practice however, it is often misunderstood as something that someone who has done us wrong must ASK of us.

Forgiveness is an innate capacity that we already have - it is as easy as choosing to let go - the same way that we exhale in our breath the by products our bodies no longer need. My point is that forgiveness is surprisingly easy - all that is required is a genuine desire/intent to do so. Forgiveness is a natural process. It is who we already are, not something we must "learn" to do. By focusing on the importance or reasons why, we miss the simplicity of being willing to just let go.

Good. I think the key is to speak about events in terms of your emotions rather than name calling / metaphor. I'm really embarrassed by what I did. I hate that I did that. I'm upset by what she said to me. He was livid about what I did. I regret doing that, I wish I hadn't . I must not do that again, I must try to do this...instead. I hate what you did there, please don't do that again. Please take more care. I didn't mean to do that. I shouldn't have done that. i'm going to aim to be careful

Should be titled "the importance of forgiveness" as it doesnt cover the "how to".
