Forgiving
Do not ask the sour hard green fruit to be rainbowhued soft and sweet. Do not expect the rosebud to have the beautiful fragrance

Therefore why expect younger souls to have the compassion of older ones
As 32 degrees centigrade is the temperature at which icicles melt, so it is inevitable in the history of each soul that he or she arrives at a forgveness point. As the icicle daggers of King Winter melt away,
so do the stalactites of past fights.*

Forgiving is
. unplugging a clogged sewer
. putting down a heavy burden on a very hot day
. recognizing God who indwells our foes as well
. realizing that all return hurts are boomerangs of what
we sent out in this or another life
. letting go of the old images on the tv screen of our minds
that new ones can enter
. taking the needle off the broken record
. knowing that all judging is projection of self hatred
. melting the icebergs of ego and resentment in the sea of love
. becoming unfrozen from time
. letting underground water of resentment upburst as geysers of joy

Don't go down Rearview Road. It's one way.. and leads to pillars of salt.
'Abandon all varieties of dharma and only surrender unto
Me (God)' Bhagavad Gita.
We never know which people whose actions we might
disagree with are acting on their own marching orders
from God.
*
Until past images are released, one is a blocked tv screen.*
Sin is a learning experience in all souls' journey
all arrive at the destination...the lord of love and light..
