Forgiveness is the key to freedom. If there is something or someone holding you back, perhaps it is time to "FORGIVE" and move on. I know it is easier said then done. I know personally it has been a struggle for me from time to time especially when it comes to my family that I grew up in.
I have a father who was very abusive physically and mentally. It helps me now to talk about it but, I know its hard to forgive when old memories come up from time to time. The sad thing is when you want to change the other person it never works, the person never takes blame or admits to their wrongs.
I have to tell myself to forgive and let go and Let GOD on a constant basis. Like I said it is never easy but, you have to make a effort if you want your life to improve.
When you forgive someone it HELPS YOU and HEALS YOU from the inside out. As hard as it might be to do this you must for your own sake and well being ,life is a process of learning, living and forgiving...... and when things are out of our control we must also learn to "Let Go"

The Magic of Blessing
Today's topic is going to be about "Blessing"
When something or someone in your life is not going the way you want it. For example let's say you have a co-worker, boss, friend or family member that is giving you a hard time. Instead of fighting fire with fire. Silently or out loud bless the person or situation that is causing you trouble.
By blessing them you are in turn blessing yourself. You are turning a negative feeling or situation around.
I once was in a situation where one of my co-workers was the most difficult person to get along with. No matter what I did or said this person was a complete thorn in my side. I decided one day to start blessing her in my prayers. (It did not happen over night) but, on a regular basis I would bless her and say her name out loud (when I was alone of course) and within 6 months of practicing this, she found a great job and moved on. She had been with our company for a long time and it seemed like she would be a permanent fixture there but, low and behold my blessings worked.
This has worked in many cases in my past. Whether they leave on their own or I got promoted but, the situation never remained the way it was by me "Blessing" them.
You can also bless your health and all areas of your life.
Our first reaction being human is to naturally curse something but, try blessing it and see what happens.
It surely can not hurt you and it surely can help you.
