Forgiving past transgressions

Seriously ‘bad behaviour’ that is harmful to others, operates under the same principles as minor misdemeanours ❤️‍🩹

The other day I wrote about how I used to get mad with myself when I forgot what I’d gone upstairs for, and these days I don’t.

You see, it’s just a mind, doing what minds do, forgetting what minds forget. It’s doing its best, but in these situations any anger I feel is essentially the mind having an argument with itself, and I tend not to get involved in all that any more.

It’s creating a story that it doesn’t like, and getting shook up as a result.

(Minds! What are they like?! 🤷🏻‍♂️)

Then someone asked me a question about how to forgive stuff that they’d done in the past, and it got me thinking.
