I think we should declare today Forgiving Friday. I know it's pretty well taken already as Black Friday...the biggest shopping day of the year. But I think Forgiving Friday would get us a lot more in the end.
It actually makes sense...yesterday was Thanksgiving where we paused to be grateful for what we have. I think it should be followed by Forgiving Friday where we spend a bit of time forgiving and letting go of people or things that have hurt us.
It's like a cleansing for our soul. I know I carry some things that have hurt me. I try to put them down but some days they are back like they have never left. So I am thinking a ceremony or official day may help me.
So here is what I am going to do. I am going to make a list of people who have hurt me and then I am going to burn it as a release. I am going to watch it burn and say good bye to them. I need to move past them and so do you. ( Of course all buring should be done safely.)
I read once where people who have hurt you probably don't even remember what they did and so give it little, if any thought. While you and me on the other hand continue to carry it and all it's negative energy. I figure if they can let go of it...it's time that I did too. You too.
So practice a little forgiving today and see how it feels. Maybe we indeed have the start of something very powerful here...
