HOPE OFFERS FORGIVENESS: When we begin to see things from the level of our true self, we dispel the illusion that our core being could ever be hurt, disrespected, or vulnerable.

Hope Offers Forgiveness In today’s meditation, we explore the role of hope in forgiveness. We learn that blame, judgment, and resentment are false perceptions of our ego. When we begin to see things from the level of our true self, we dispel the illusion that our core being could ever be hurt, disrespected, or vulnerable. Living in the present moment is living with that clarity of hope, and in that state we automatically forgive ourselves for the misunderstanding and hurt feelings associated with it.

Our centering thought for today is: Every day I move toward forgiveness.   “Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey toward it, casts the shadow of our burden behind us.” – Samuel Smiles
