The Seeds We Plant Series #52: Forgiveness and the Cycle of Pain

Hi there,

It’s not common to look to others to break the cycle of pain, to acknowledge what they did or didn’t do to us, apologize for their behavior, or even change their hurtful actions. However, forgiveness, despite acknowledgment, an apology, and a change of heart, is an essential component to breaking the cycle of pain. 

We no longer expend unhealthy energy and thoughts. We don’t stay in unproductive states. We know that pain isn’t personal but often a cry for help and a lost soul. Forgiveness involves taking the lessons from experience without the emotional residue of anger, anxiety, confusion, doubt, guilt, resentment, shame, vengeance, and the like. We must take the lessons from the experience, mostly about ourselves, and press forward to do the work we are here to do. 

We properly care for our bodies because we know it is the vehicle by which we do our work. We know our lives are not a mistake but an opportunity to make the world a better place. It is through our experiences that we carry out our divine purpose of healing and restoration.

In addition, this new year, 2025, let’s look at the thoughts that keep us from reaching our goals. When we find the underlying beliefs and take positive action, we change how we treat ourselves and others.
