Reaching a correct rational resolution with the Self, takes times when an individual’s emotions, psyche and physical self-love, is in disarray. We do dark things in our lives, that we are not proud of however, in doing so there is always a choice to revert to our old humane Self, if we are prepared to restore the eternal love and everlasting light that has always shone within. Change within the bounds of the Self, is a realistic and an undeniably possible remedy for an individual who is troubled, to eradicate the blueprints of its dark ways. It is all activated by the right attitude towards reconciling your mental faculty, with your emotional faculty – it all starts with Self-forgiveness.
Self-forgiveness, is a thought and life altering process aimed for the betterment of the Mental, Emotional, and Physical. It is an emotionally excruciating task for one to do a mental, emotional and physical introspection and retrospection, of what they have done in their lives to make their inner Self alter its course from reaching the omnipotent light.
To blame yourself for things that you did, because you did not know better or lacked the knowledge of taking the appropriate choice, is not an amusement. It is the seed that spreads the roots of self-loathing, self-alienation and self-destruction. The seed and roots that harvest the fruits of hate and dark persona, which bears the trees of self-annihilation.
When an individual vehemently abhors something or someone, without concrete base of why they detest so much. The darkness within them consumes them, thus dictates the terms of how they will react towards that particular thing or someone. Consequently, the rational is lost, replaced by madness and diabolical thoughts; culminating to an unwanted end.
What does it mean to forgive yourself? Self-forgiveness starts with Self-respect and Self-love. When you respect and love yourself, you see life in a different light, as opposed to hurting and hating everything in it. Self-forgiveness means, recognizing and acknowledging the source of your psychological and spiritual dilemma, and taking ownership for your part. Self-forgiveness means, taking the suitable steps in changing your false psychological and spiritual attitude, towards your behavioral and thinking pattern. Self-forgiveness means, knowing that you own your inner Self, your thinking and emotions – no other person can touch your inner Self, unless you allow them to. Self-forgiveness means, reconstructing the events that took you to a dark place and mending the ‘HOW’ it happened. Self-forgiveness means, reconciling your inner Self with the source, the light; and redeeming yourself from the darkness that has shrouded your soul. Self-forgiveness means, forgiving those that have wronged you and asking forgiveness from those that you have wronged.
Self-forgiveness means, knowing that life is an intellectual and physical game that you have to win, without resorting to ways that will hinder your Self-respect, Self-love, Self-consistency, Self-belief and Transcending-love. Self-forgiveness means bringing peace unto yourself.
To truly forgive yourself, means changing, re-developing your inner Self and your personality in a way that honestly alters erroneous habits. It means to physically act out the inner resolution to forgive yourself, without going overboard, or being too enthusiastic about your psychological and physical recourse.
Kirk Franklin, one of the best Gospel luminaries in the world once noted, “If your inner man catches up with your outer man, then you will be a great man,” It is the inner Self, the light that shines from within that will help you transcend your life to a perpetual plain of Self-love, Self-respect, Self-growth and inner peace.
