In today’s episode of The Seeds We Plant Series: 17, on Create a Generational Love Cycle, I share my thoughts on forgiveness and its relationship with love. Forgiving someone and yourself of an action or inaction, a spoken word, or an unspoken word, frees us to see the bigger picture and purpose for our lives.
What role does unforgiveness play in doing the work you are here to do? What role does forgiveness play in fulfilling your divine purpose? To be emotionally and mentally free? To align with the highest version of yourself?
An action, inaction, a word spoken, or not spoken does not define you or prevent you from doing the work you are here to do.
How do you remind yourself and others of the innate ability to forgive”¦to release people, including yourself, from projected pain? How do you prevent yourself from being imprisoned by unhealed wounds? Our residual emotions and feelings impact our thinking about ourselves, others, and life and add to the world’s consciousness.
We teach what we are and reinforce what we teach. We can either continue the cycle of pain by focusing on it (i.e., not forgiving, holding grudges., etc.) or help align the world with the truth that resides within us. The one who projected their pain was hurting. You don’t have to do the same thing done to you, consciously or unconsciously.
Assess your inner garden. Aim to remove the weeds of anger, anxiety, fear, regret, unforgiveness, and the like so that your innate seeds of compassion, grace, and love can grow.
There is a saying that the best revenge is success. But purpose seeks no revenge. It is grounded in truth, and truth is love. Love seeks no revenge.
Forgiveness permits you to:
Experience without getting emotionally involved.
Stand as an observer of life events.
Seek the treasures of an experience (what to learn).
Represent the truth (guiding Spirit of life and beyond).

I share how one of my mother’s words of wisdom from my book, The Inner Garden, can help us lessen the “weeds”—the persistent negative emotions that can taint our purpose.Takeaways1. Storms are an opportunity to gain clarity about our experiences. We can choose to see them from a healthier, more grounded perspective.2. Persistent negative habits can slowly work against us from the inside out. An inner decline often begins long before anything becomes visible on the outside.3. Whatever remains in the dark will eventually come to light. We have both the power and the divine right to correct our persistent patterns of thinking and behavior.For continued support in cultivating harmony, health, and peace, check out my eBook: The Inner Garden 53 Life Principles Rooted in a Mother's Wisdom for Cultivating Harmony, Health, and Inner Peace.

If you are a recent nursing graduate or caring for one who is preparing to take their licensure exam, this message is for you.
Preparing for the NCLEX can often seem daunting, and it feels like you are going down a dark tunnel. There is so much information. How do you cover it all in under three months? Where do you start? What about my test anxiety and these other emotions and feelings? What do I start doing two weeks before my exam?
I offer a lit path by helping many NCLEX candidates organize, simplify, understand, and apply their nursing content so that they can do the work they are here to do. This weekend, I am offering 1/2 off on The NCLEX Success Mindset Course, Study guides and charts, and more.
The NCLEX Success Mindset Mini-Course helps put you on a clearer path. Tutoring services can be expensive. The NCLEX Success Mindset Mini-Course is my tutoring support in 10 modules with resources, strategies, and tips to help you master test anxiety and other emotions and feelings, create structure and systematic studying to help you close the gaps in your knowledge, and believe in yourself again. Sample study charts are included.
My study notes are what I wish I had as a student to organize, simplify, understand, and apply information. These notes are some of the most asked-about resources from nursing graduates I’ve tutored. In addition, I used these notes as a Pharm teacher to PN & RN students.
As with any wound, creating the right environment is essential to healing. We must know how the wound looked before it occurred. Returning to our default settings allows us to realize we don’t need to carry our wounds around. We have the right, the divine right, to heal from the inside out.
