Forgiveness Is A Process - Not Just A Thing You Do

on
It has been my experience, whether of my own or others during conversation, that I have concluded that forgiveness is not just a thing you do; it is a process healing and growing. 
People tend to end up in the space of resentment and regret due to not realizing this mere enlightenment.  It hinders them from successfully letting go of the bane that caused them so much pain that they once again harbor the atrocities of the incident(s) that lead them here in the first place.
I'll begin what I mean by forgiveness being a process by using the analogy of a baby having to let go of it's attachment to its Mother in the womb so it may grow into his/her own super power to heal and grow. 

While a baby is still in the womb of the mother, it is very comfortable not having to use its eyes because it is so dark you don't need to use them.  The baby does not need to use the communication style of crying to let Mommy know I'm hungry or cold because there is no need before being delivered.  It has the use of the umbilical cord connecting the two and the warm temperature of her body.
As soon as the child comes into the light of this world, it begins its process of letting go of the pass (housed in the womb) and engaging in the present so it may have a successful future.
The baby has to go through the process of letting go of it's attachment of all the comforts afforded it in the womb to now grow into a more powerful being.
Now having to deal with light, the baby has to learn how to open it's eyes and began to focus on shadows and focus its sight learning which is Mama and which is Daddy.  He/she has to start communicating vocally its need for food, comfort, warmth, or attention.
This is the baby going through the process of healing (skin now adapting to temperature and texture of its new environment) and growing (learning new ways of communicating, filtering, and becoming more independent).

Just as these things are important for the development and advancing of the baby, so it is with us when it comes to forgiving.

Forgiving for the most part easier said than done.  It has almost become cliche for people to use the term loosely versus the journey it takes them to get to the moment of growing out of the darkness of hurriedly moving on with fast words rather than processing the healing and enlightening moment of forgiveness.

The process of forgiveness activates your Super Power of self perception.  "It's all about perception (or perspective) right?"  Said by so many people I communicate with.
A person's perception is their reality.  This is the defining moment where action is expressed on what is believed to be true.  Therefore, you are only able to forgive according to your level of awareness of your true self.
There are four areas activated during this process to support you not experiencing resentment or regrets once you commit to the lifestyle of forgiveness:
  1. Self Awareness - your consciousness your feelings, your motives and desires and even your character.
  2. Self Esteem - how you feel about your self.
  3. Self Concept - the idea of who you believe you are.
  4. Self Worth - the value you place on yourself.
Once you are secure in these four areas, you become like a snake or a tarantula spider shedding its chitin (exoskeleton) leaving its former shell developing the new one for greater perception or perspective of one's self.  You have healed yourself from the pass and moving on to enjoy life reborn as you are more conscious of the super power of your self perception in your healing process.
