Forgiveness
Excellent! Gave me a whole new perspective about looking at life and how to make space for others, about not making our ill-wishers into thinking that they are the masters of our life. Wow!

forgiving self
As we go through life we forgive those who hurt us and do wrong by us....the hardest thing in life is to forgive ourselves. It took me 40 years to learn this lesson, or at least I thought I had. I guess I only forgave myself "a little", thanks to this talk, I will now forgive myself completely' Thank You

Thank You
Thank you very much for helping me with the process of forgiveness in my life because as it is written "if you do not forgive your father in heaven will not forgive you " It is written "offenses will come" The hurt in my life is deep and painfull as those closest to me have done me the most harm. As I rebuild my life from these holocaust like circumstances I must learn to forgive and this video was tremendously helpful. Thank You.

Eye opener!
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I have been the victim and vulnerable and been depressed nearly my entire marriage life due to my inlaws or should I say due to my passive role. Thank you for helping me to rethink my choices, rethink my resentment and denial of reality and rethink about the authority I have given away.This has given my the ounce of strength needed to release may Adonai help me along the rest of this process!

Thank You
I was looking online to find when Yom Kipur starts and ends since my family wanted to have us for the meal and we leave in a 15 minutes driving distance. I found this website "accidentally" and as I was cooking I listened to the one hour talk above.
I really needed to hear this talk. I truly appreciate. Will start practicing the things I remember from the talk.
I had an experienced last year with resentment, I developped a sever allergic reaction because of the resentments I accumulated in my life. Toxicity in action. I had done healing on myself and since then I have cleared my reaction completely. I do feel though when resentment come up. Since my very painful (physically) experience, I catch resentments as they show up more quickly today, I really can't afford it, but it's been 3 years that we have been trying to get pregnant, which I did, but miscarried, and I will do more contemplations about that. I thank you for that story.
Many Blessings and Gmar Hatima Tova.

The Art of Forgiveness
There should be a part one, two, three and four of this topic. It is so life changing and this is why so many people are sick and diseased and financially in bondage because of unforgivenss in their souls.

forgiveness
When the offender gets away with wickedness without being cornered to see his sins, too often the wickedness intensifies toward the scapegoat. There needs to be right judgment to stop this!
