Wellness Wednesday: let’s chat a little about forgiveness!! It is the hardest thing to do but also the most freeing thing you can ever do yourself. I found myself in this situation last year with a very close friend. I wanted to hold on to my anger and even told them I will never forgive them in the heat of the moment. This was my mantra for months, and the anger and unwillingness to forgive them was further fuelled every time I thought about what they did. But at some point during last year I choose to forgive them not for them but for myself. I came to the realization that my unwillingness to forgive them wasn’t the result of anger, but hurt! They really hurt me- those closes to you are often the one to really hurt you as they say. Knowing that I knew that in order for me to heal and begin my healing process, I needed to forgive them because that anger and hurt does nothing to me. I told myself that forgiveness is the only way to heal. It wasn’t for them or to make them feel better about themself, but to free myself. As Don Miguel Ruiz says “We can choose to forgive because we feel compassion for ourselves.” #wellnesswednesday

If you live in a past dream, you don't enjoy what is happening right now because you will always wish it to be different than it is. There is no time to miss anyone or anything because you are alive. Not enjoying what is happening right now is living in the past and being only half alive. This leads to self pity, suffering and tears ~

I have to go to work on Mondays and yes everyone hates Mondays. But I look at it a little differently. I don’t have to work, I GET to work. I am blessed to have a job while many don’t have one ~ Dinky Manuel
