Dear family,
happy christmas and good new year to you all!
I would like to talk about forgiveness..
In my life recently, for reasons known to god alone, several of my close family and friends have let me down real bad. A wave of madness seems to have come from a mixture of hard drug addiction, mental health problems and crazy selfish human drama. I love these people, but am also very hurt and angry. I know I am no angel myself and to keep flowing on the shaolin path I must find a way to sincerely forgive them. The problem is they are tough forceful people and if I am too easy I know they will take my kindness for weakness.
My big question is, how do we forgive without becoming a doormat?
I know this kind of trouble comes to us all in different forms, please tell me how you have managed to forgive in your lives.
Thankyou!
Davie
