We all need healing. Sometimes, we are able to forgive ourself but not another person (and vice versa). But true healing is when we can forgive and bless every soul (myself and every other soul in picture), while taking the essential 'lesson' from the situation. Forgiving yourself and another person is a powerful step towards emotional healing and personal spiritual growth.
When we hold onto feelings of guilt, shame, or resentment, we carry an 'emotional burden' that can limit our ability to move forward. By learning to practice self-compassion and extend the same love & empathy to others, we release negative energies that stand in the way of inner peace and stronger relationships. This article/post explores practical steps toward true forgiveness, offering 'insights' on how it can transform your life.

๐ทForgiveness is a process, whether forgiving yourself or another person. In any case, ๐ฌ๐๐ฅ๐-๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง is essential. When you see yourself with a gentle eye of compassion, it is easy to see how everyone can make unintentional mistakes, as ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ญ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ข๐ซ ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐๐ฒ ๐จ๐ '๐ ๐ซ๐จ๐ฐ๐ญ๐ก' ๐๐ฌ ๐ ๐ฌ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ.

To forgive yourself, acknowledge your mistakes without judgment, learn from them, and embrace the understanding that everyone grows through error & realisation. Practice self-compassion by recognizing your 'humanity' and consciously choosing to release guilt, shifting focus toward what (and how) you can do better from now.

This involves empathizing with their imperfections, seeing their actions in context (the given situation), and understanding that holding onto resentment harms you more than them. By genuinely wishing for their well-being and choosing to let go of anger, you pave the way for ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ and ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
