Forgiveness

Posted by in Marlene's Feel Good Blog | 1 comment

Here’s Something to Feel Good About Today…

The blame game is a futile one. When I feel betrayed or hurt by someone’s actions, I’ve learned that the shortest way to find acceptance is to take responsibility for my part in whatever has happened.

When I make myself accountable I find there is a valuable lesson to be uncovered. What I learn from the experience helps me to find my way to acceptance of my human frailties as well as theirs.

We all have areas of our lives that call for forgiveness. Let’s begin today to find peace in our hearts by letting go of all resentments.

    Great blog. Keep up the good work. And on the topic of forgiveness, you might want to check out this brief video — ahamoment.com/pg/moments/view/1888 — it’s one woman’s “aha moment” experienced as she realized she needed to forgive in order to move on and enjoy her life once again. I think you’ll find it inspiring.

    The site, by the way, was created by Mutual of Omaha to highlight good works, inspirational stories, and “aha moments” of all kinds. Hope you’ll give it a look and perhaps even share your own story.

    Thanks,

Now, my passion has taken me to blogging, compiling, and sharing stories of people who in their own small way have made a difference in someone’s life; stories that have the amazing ability to reawaken our senses to experience everything that is and can be good in the world and connect us with each other.
