Forgiving is Not Forgetting: This Sage Power is Transformational
Manage episode 428993081 series 3586350
Forgiving someone, even ourselves, for a wrong or perceived injustice is one of the hardest things to do. The popular cliche "to forgive is to forget" is wrong! Forgiveness is about freedom--from resentment, anger, blame, judgment, and even shame and guilt. In Positive Intelligence terms, forgiveness is possible when we use our Sage powers of Empathy, Explore, Navigate, Innovate, and Activate. In episode 15, my guest Alicia R. McLain and I discuss the meaning of forgiveness, what events, people, and things have happened to us that may prompt us to need or want to forgive in the first place, and what transformation occurs in ourselves when we make that life-changing decision to move on with our lives. Tune in for insights on the power that forgiveness brings.

"Forgiveness" (Poem) by George Roemisch
Forgiveness is the wind-blown bud which
blooms in placid beauty at Verdun.
Forgiveness is the tiny slate-gray sparrow
which has built its nest of twigs and
string among the shards of glass upon the
wall of shame.
Forgiveness is the child who laughs in merry
ecstasy beneath the toothed fence
that closes in Da Nang.
Forgiveness is the fragrance of the
violet which still clings fast to the
heel that crushed it.
Forgiveness is the broken dream which
hides itself within the corner of the
mind oft called forgetfulness so that it
will not bring pain to the dreamer.
Forgiveness is the reed which stands up
straight and green when nature's mighty
rampage halts, full spent.
Forgiveness is a God who will not leave
us after all we've done.
