If we're all mirrors, perhaps what you see in Nexus is being mirrored back to you as well? Stands to reason.... :P

Forgiveness is firstly and predominantly about forgiving yourself. When you do that and remove/release the negative charge towards some trait, action, event, or attitude you participated in, you...

I actually thank you profusely for keeping this thread open and being willing to dialogue more fully on how forgiveness is defined in "Bill's House." It has been very informative and dare I say...

This is a case of punishing the wrong people then. To use Dennis's analogy of bully children and how to deal with them - do you punish the innocent child because one of their classmates is acting up?

break time!

What changed? I realized that I, and most everyone else whose name appears on that thread, were unwittingly supporting a deceitfully fabricated charm offensive.[/QUOTE]

It seems we are running...

As I have said before:[/QUOTE]

ah, so the old posts then. Thanks. I understand now. So they were in existence when you made the healing thread a sticky and thanked the post believing it was...

Thanks Paul - I can understand that. In that case, it is good that Bill's interview and Inelia's preview have been posted so everyone can see for themselves. Sorry to ask again but I am very curious...

I want to make sure I understand. Your perception is that an "ongoing injustice that was continuing to harm the reputations of some individuals in the public eye" is what was posted in...

I trust that the motives of those whose apologies appeared in the original Healing Choir thread were all or mostly honorable. That is what I and some other mods noticed when we thanked Sepia's...

I understand. Do you think dialogue would be a good initial step towards starting that dynamic? Especially in this virtual forum world we reside in as Nexus and Avalon? Perhaps it is the first...

The first effort has been made. Whether its complete enough is the question for you I think. What further harm can come by making an effort back and seeing where it leads?

And it is a certainty that the former is ultimately stronger than the latter.

Thanks Paul for keeping this thread open. I would like to ask everyone, in their experience, what baby steps were they initially able to make towards forgiving someone who has wronged you?

Another suggestion is to remove your own personal attachment from what other people say. Those are their words. You can choose your response or lack of response to their words. Just another...

One step at a time. :) Forgiveness is a journey just like all else.

Thanks so much John! I find this post very inspiring. :)

Thanks for your response. I disagree actually. To me, forgiveness is something I do regardless of whether or not the other party offers it, makes amends, or changes their ways. It's something I do...

I'd like to start a discussion on forgiveness. What enables you to forgive? What perimeters do you place on it? What does forgiveness mean to you?

Belle - ho'oponopono is the perfect expression for this. thank you for saying it. I echo: I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you.
