"no one ever died from a poisonous snakebite.
they died from the poison that circulated through their veins."
they died from the poison that circulated through their veins."
-wayne dyer
not sure where wayne got this quote (or if he made it up), but it has always allowed me to visualize forgiveness from its proper perspective.
we don't 'forgive' the snake, and we definitely don't "forgive & forget." if anything, we forgive & remember.
the forgiveness process, however, is the purging of the poison. in human relationships, this often comes down to understanding (or "standing under").
he who feels 'wronged' can bow to the fact that wIe make mistakes due to the combination of our individual genetics & socialization & experiences.
from this perspective, it is hard to blame anyone for anything!
from this perspective, we can attain an even Higher vibration than forgiveness:
Non-judgment.
