Forgiveness!

"Where there is forgiveness, there is God Himself"

                                                   

The best deed of a great man is to forgive and forget. Forgiveness is the key that breaks the chain of bitterness. By forgiving the people who have done us wrong, we can give ourselves the greatest gift of  peace. This gives us an opportunity to start afresh or to do better next time. Forgiveness is a choice - so let go of the desire of revenge and commit to learn from our errors. Forgiving frees both - the forgiver and the forgiven, equally on a subtle level. Forgiveness saves your precious time and saves you to face more problems, it is an instant solution for any problem. Revenge always wastes time without any benefit. To forgive means to stop feeling angry, it has more to do with ourselves than others. It comes only when we move out of the negative mind set. Forgiving is the real victory, no relationship can survive without it. Parents always forgive their children no matter what they do. 

The way of this world is to find fault in others because everybody is dominated by the mind which is motivated by ego and this thinking leads us to criticize others. These critical remarks may upset us but it is not worth getting upset over the comments of others who have no value in our life. When we face criticism, we can take a hard look at ourselves and make some changes so that we become a better person. When you forgive anybody, you don't change the past but you sure do some change for the future. Mistakes are always forgivable. Every action you perform is like a boomerang, it always comes back to you, so don't waste your life in useless matters - there are so many good things to do. When someone hurts us, we have three ways to deal with it -

1) Express - we can express our anger, if we can do it calmly in a productive way.
2) Suppress it - we do not express anger and take it inside, but this might cause depression and stress. 3) Forgive - we are ready to move forward and don't want to stick in that moment.

Weak can never forgive, forgiveness is the attribute of a strong person. Meditation is the best way to calm your mind and forgive all your criticizers.

Good Parenting & Childhood

Every child in this world is unique.

There is nothing to become, nothing to achieve - let individuality in the child grow. Acknowledge the potential within the child and help it to blossom to its full potential. Instead of making the child ambitious, you need to recognize the child's talents and nourish it in an atmosphere that encourages individuality. Children are new editions of fresh entries of divinity into life. They are born with the power of grasping fresh knowledge, which is optimum at birth and diminishes with age - so don't suffocate your children with restrictions. But you have to study their natural talent and give proper direction to their fresh energy. This is the best way to guide your children. 

Children have their own agendas and try to find out more and more about this world, however each child is nurtured by the goal of ambition through their parents and the society. The child has to prove himself by bringing gold medals and trophies in every field. Is it possible for a little child? 

In this race not everybody can taste success and reach the top. So millions of others are bound to develop negativity. Ergo, I think that ambition is a poison and it is more dangerous than any kind of alcohol and drugs. It often destroys the life of child and make him move in the wrong direction. Why should we make talent a grade to judge the child? Why should we not take it as nature of the child. 

Respect, justice, love and liberty - if we teach our children these concepts at the age of six or seven, they will keep it for the rest of their lives. The greatest legacy we can give to our children is not money but a legacy of character and faith. Any personality begins to form in childhood and to the time one reaches maturity. So good parenting is the real base to form good and charming personalities.
