Are You Teaching Your Children The Art Of Forgiveness?

As a follow up to my post last week called Your Worlds Are Merging And Your Children Know It and my latest review of Penney Peirce's newest book Leap Of Perception: The Transforming Power of Your Attention I wanted to touch on the subject of forgiveness.

Penney shares some very powerful information surrounding forgiveness. She begins by sharing a quote from Joan Borysenko, "Forgiveness is not the misguided act of condoning irresponsible, hurtful behavior, Nor is it a superficial turning of the other cheek that leaves us feeling victimized and martyred. Rather, it is the finishing of old business that allows us to experience the present, free of contamination from the past."

This particularly struck a cord within me. I've always found it rather easy to forgive and move on. I'm not one to hold grudges. I know people make mistakes during their human experience. I'm also a Libra and have an innate ability to find the balance in every situation. On the other hand I've been around many who hold on tightly to their unforgiveness, judgments and anger. I've seen it first hand passed on to their children. Children sometimes assume the same limiting beliefs as their parents and take on their parents feelings and judgements as their own.

Your Worlds Are Merging And Your Children Know It!

I'm currently reading Penney Peirce's newest book Leap of Perception: The Transforming Power of Your Attention. One thing that really resonates with me is her take on how our worlds are merging. Really they've always been merging it's just now humanity is reaching such a point in their spiritual growth that the consciousness to understand this concept more is becoming reality. Children are more open and receptive to the unified fields. They are empathic and intuitive. When they first arrive in their new bodies they are fully awake. As they grow they are exposed to parental and societal beliefs which shift and change their perception. When parents allow children to be more free flowing in their thought processes and do not try and pressure them into believing only what the parent believes they are more likely to continue to share what they know from their unified connection. Don't be alarmed if your child knows things beyond your experience and connection. Your child may speak freely of a passed loved one like they are right there with you now because they actually are or your child may openly share a previous life, or a specific healing message for you. Whether you believe it or not I encourage you to keep your mind open and allow your child to be able to tell you anything. If you can keep the lines of communication open while they are little they will feel safe, unjudged and be able to come to you with their problems as they expand into adulthood. Trust in yourself, in your inner knowing. Listen to your inner feelings, thoughts and guidance. Enjoy the experience of parenting. There's reasons why your child "a spiritual being" has aligned with you in this life experience. Embrace it for all it's worth and enjoy the ride! ~ Carol Lawrence
