forgiveness makes harmony
“we looked down and saw planet Earth and realized that it was our beautiful and very small home.
we realized things were not going so well down there and we felt we had to do something about it”
-Astronaut Edgar Mitchell
the power and thrust of life moves from simple to complex.
it is smooth and harmonious. whatever is simple and first, is returned to.
around the cycles of seasons this movement goes, always revisiting back to what started it.
harmlessness is simple and innocent. resentment is reasonable, complex and complicated.
it’s a built up case. debt is a built up case too. they go hand in hand, fueled by grudge, held in place by delay.
grudges obscure a right to abundance.
grudges hide the happiness available.
grudges mask possibility.
the magnanimity of nature gets lost looking thru the keyhole of grudging rightness.
the more clear of indignation we are, the more prosperous we are likely to be.
the attitude of gratitude is the ground of prospering.
gratitude is the opposite of grudge.
the callous, i’m right you are wrong regard, which does not share responsibility for what went amiss,
is a hard calcified companion. it can quickly turn to hazard.
