I am catching up with posting online my articles.
This is the continuation of the previous article:

FORGIVING OTHERS AND FORGIVING SELF - PART 4
I know... I know... I know... that it is difficult to comprehend that somebody would not see such an obvious thing. I know that it is difficult to imagine that somebody could not see that cutting down the branch on which he is sitting will make him fall down. But yet this is happening all the time. Humans do it all the time. I can give you more examples of this kind of nonsense behaviour. And the most obvious one is what humanity does to Earth. Earth is like the branch supporting us in the air of the universe. But yet we are killing and destroying earth.
So... let's go back to the point of forgiveness. Thus it is cool that somebody overcomes the desire to take revenge and instead he decides to forgive the abuser. But once we realise that we are the ones who have created and designed this whole situation with our thoughts of worry and fear thus we should forgive ourselves that we did something like this to ourselves.
And this is the point which most of humans miss when it comes to forgiveness. We are responsible for creating what is happing to us. And although it is difficult to believe it, you are the abuser of yourself. And so you should forgive yourself and not so much forgive others.
You'll know... this self-forgiveness is extremely important because within this you'll finally admit that you are the creator of it and that you take responsibility for it. And once you take responsibility then you have the opportunity to change something in your life and the life of others.
Now... because you start to see that you are the abuser of yourself - and so you forgive yourself and within that you start to take responsibility for your life - does not mean that you will be honoured and respected by others. It is actually the opposite. Because imagine that there are thousands - and probably even millions - of people around you continuing cutting down their branches on which they are sitting believing that is something normal. And so they will be looking at you with the attitude of WTF. Literally they will be looking at you as if you were mentally sick. And they will even try to force you to go back into cutting down your own branch. And if you do not listen to them they may and they will get angry with you and they will delete you from their list of friends. And your close family will be no different. They will also stop considering you as their family member.
