"Forgiveness has to come from the heart and not the head. When I can look at that part of my life and those that did me wrong and be able to say 'between you and me there is peace now, because you no longer have the power over me to control my thoughts or my feelings or my life'", says Sandy Brewer, author of The Pursuit of Light: An Extraordinary Journey. Many people perpetuate the negative feelings they have about their past. They are unable to forgive the ones that hurt them, choosing instead to remember the past. Not only do they blame their tormenters, but they blame themselves, as well. Forgiveness is the proactive force needed to find the peace you seek in your life. Without forgiveness, your life is locked in a dark place often leading to depression or drug dependency. Forgive the people who have hurt you. Make the choice to leave the past in the past. They no longer have control over what you do, how you think, or the choices you make. Your life is your own. Most importantly, forgive yourself. Throughout your life, you believed you were to blame for the torment you suffered. That is a common feeling for an abused child, but as an adult, you must realize you were not to blame. Discover your self-worth and know that you are deserving of love and fulfillment. Allow your heart to tell you it is okay, taking forgiveness to the next level. Help yourself grow beyond your past, be kind to yourself and do not judge. About the Author: Dr. Proactive, Randy Gilbert enjoys producing the "Inside Success Show".
