Today’s forgiving journal: A Peace Ambassador at Last!

Posted on by Forgiving Connects

Today’s forgiving journal is about a Peace Ambassador at last!

This is the third time I started to write this blog.

Yesterday, I became aware of a way that I behaved in a past relationship that I wasn’t proud of.  I started crying – just letting out the grief, the disappointment, and probably a lot of other things too.

Right now, I’d like to forgive – because I choose to love myself.  And give compassion to myself.

1 – Self-forgiveness: I forgive myself for judging that I needed to be perfect in my relationship. I forgive myself for judging myself for not honoring myself and my partner.  I forgive myself for judging myself as responsible for the break up and for feeling ashamed.

2 – Letting Go: I let this go into the Light and give it over to peace.  To compassion.  To great love.  And I walk free.

3 – Gratitude: I am grateful that in forgiveness, there is NO NEED to get it perfect.  Because all I need to do is to do my best, and the loving heals it all.

****

The funny thing is that I’m considering doing a workshop “Making Peace with Yourself”.  In it, we can look at the area of our life where we’re not at peace, and do forgiveness.  I guess I am learning how to walk my talk.

And my prayer for each of us is that we truly and deeply carry compassion for ourselves and for our planet.  There, I said it.  I have such a vision for peace.

I used to want to be a peace ambassador at the UN, it was such a dream of mine.  What I claim right now is that I AM a peace ambassador.  I invite you to claim it too, however that looks for you!  We all carry compassion.

I love you.

Love, Debbie

ps – This is my second contribution for Frank’s photo challenge, Curves.  Frank, I see our compassion encircling the curves of the planet with love.  You inspire me, Frank!

    1. One of the most beautiful quotes I ever read was from my spiritual teacher, John-Roger. He said: “There is so much there for you once you open yourself to it and place yourself upon this path of unfoldment. It’s magnificent. And it is all a manifestation of love.” I am learning how to forgive and see love everywhere. So grateful to connect with you on this path, dear Rhonda. ❤ Blessings to your day, Debbie
