Forgiveness

"Those who have offended us are merely the symbols of our own inner mistakes." Ernest Holmes

Part of our life journey is to keep our perspective.  It is said that we are mere specks of dust in the great vastness of the Eternal.  When I see a photo of earth from space, it helps me remember that I am a small part of the whole, and that each of us is a small part of the whole.  Remembering that, it is easier to expect the best behavior from others -- because we believe in their goodness, just like our own.  "Only those who are still on the pathway from matter to Mind need to forgive." Ernest Holmes  That seems to be true.  If we become fully integrated humans, we will know that we are part of a greater whole and there is nothing to fear or forgive.
