What does it mean to forgive yourself? What does it mean to forget who you
are? To forgive yourself is to set yourself free, forgiveness is a gift of
freedom. To forgive yourself is to clear and release yourself of all
judgments and limitations for any conclusion that you come to about yourself
is a restriction on your inherent freedom to choose, change and evolve. To
forget who you are is to live in fear, isolation and loneliness. To forget
who you are is to live as if you are separate from all other aspects of life
or beings with the apparent need to defend yourself from a seemingly
threatening external world, universe or creation.

Now it is important to understand that the act of forgiveness is not an act
of forgetfulness for the very thing that is being forgiven is the forgetting
itself. Can you forgive yourself for incarnating on Earth and forgetting
who you are by placing a veil between your conscious and unconscious mind?
Can you forgive yourself for every time and situation that you have
forgotten who you are and lived like an abandoned child?

The act of redemption is the process of remembering who you really are; that
you are God also, that you are the co-Creator of your life. You cannot
forgive yourself without first remembering who you are for it is the act of
remembrance that your freedom of will is restored. Like the old saying
goes, ?You get what you give? but there is more to it than that for you also
forgive what you forget and you receive what you remember. Every moment
that you forget who you are and live in fear, you are also giving away your
power and getting the feeling of being unworthy of love.

Re-empower yourself with remembrance and do not expect to be able to do that
all alone. Don?t be afraid to raise your hand and ask for help for your
higher self, your inner plane guides and innumerable beings from dimensions
and densities beyond that have already gone through the process of
forgetting are just waiting on the edge of their seats for your request so
that they can assist and serve you with a gentle reminder of love, light and
unity.

Now that you know how to forgive yourself, what about forgiving the actions
of others? Can you forgive all other selves for also forgetting who they
are? Can you forgive all other selves for their fearful behavior when they
are living in fear and forgetfulness? By all other selves I mean ALL other
selves, can you forgive Hitler for forgetting who he was, can you forgive
Bin Laden for forgetting who he was, can you forgive the murderers and
rapists of little children, can you forgive all beings for forgetting who
they are?

Do not be the one that throws the first stone of judgment for have there not
been times when you have forgotten as well? The last thing someone needs
when living in fear is a pile of stones from your judgments. What they do
need however is your compassion, your understanding, and your love. What
they do need is for you to help them remember who they are which can simply
be done by remembering and being who you are through your kind thoughts,
words, and actions. Embody the compassion of a friend by being the love
that you are, by including everyone that comes into you life and by helping
them feel apart of the beauty and wonder of all that is.

Imagine what a world it will be when the forgetting has been totally
forgiven as we share in the freedom of our souls.
