because it frees you.
It lets you out of that prison
you put yourself in.”

We may think it is for the one we forgive but in the end, we cut our own chains.

Beautiful words, aren’t they ?
Infact , here in India , a holy event & a festival of forgiveness called Paryushana is being celebrated every year. Right now , it’s underway ( from 7th September to 14 th September )
So Let’s share our thoughts on & celebrate Forgiveness :

why is it sometimes so hard to get “out of our heads”? … to “just think good thoughts”? … because we are wired to seek what is familiar, and sometimes those damn thoughts have been playing on a loop for years, decades…there is safety in familiar. But there is freedom in choice. Choosing to change your thinking, change your story. Choosing to BE Love. Choosing to DO life with full abandon, engaged and with light.
