The Center For American Progress
The Center For American Progress is a think tank dedicated to improving the lives of Americans through ideas and action.
The Center combines bold policy ideas with a modern communications platform to help shape the national debate, expose the hollowness of conservative governing philosophy, and challenge the media to cover the issues that truly matter.
The Center For American Progress's work is built upon progressive ideals put forth by such leaders as Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, JKF, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
The Center draws from the great social movements of the 20th. century - from labor rights and worker safety, to civil rights and women's suffrage.
The Center For American Progress translates these values into new ideas and action firmly rooted in the economic and political realities of the 21st. century.

Forgiveness
by Lynne Kaska
How many years are you going to carry that unforgivable injury? How many years are you going to be controlled by it? How painful is it to carry this pain? What is it costing you? What are the payoffs for holding onto it? When you get sick and tired of carrying this, you'll make the choice to let it go and to forgive that person for hurting you. The results will be indescribable.
Let me start off by telling you a little bit about what forgiveness is not. The most important thing for me to remember is that forgiveness does NOT mean that what the injurer did is right. It does not mean that you are letting them off the hook for their behavior. It does not mean that you have to disassociate from that person. It's not done for the injurer.
What is forgiveness? Forgiveness is a conscious choice that we make for ourselves. It is a choice that we make to not allow those that have hurt us to have power over us.
Not only is it important for us to forgive those people who have harmed us, I have found that it is essential for me to forgive myself as well. Usually it's me that is my own worst enemy.
Now that we have identified what forgiveness is and is not, it's time to look at just how do we make that conscious choice.
Step One: Identify the Injury
Of course, in order to forgive someone, we have to identify the injury and the pain it caused. Below is a list of several questions to ask yourself in order to help you identify the people YOU need to forgive. With each person who has hurt you in life, answer the following questions:
1. What has the injury cost you?
2. How is carrying the pain and anger working for you?
3. What is the payoff for carrying the pain and anger?
4. What would it be like to let this go?
Step Two: Validating Your Feelings
When I went through the process of forgiving the people that have hurt me, the most important step for me was to understand that even though I am choosing to forgive and let go, it doesn't invalidate the way I feel. It was absolutely essential for me to validate my own feelings and to tell myself that those feelings were okay to have. I didn't think that validating my feelings would make such a big difference in making the choice to forgive. When I knew that my feelings about the injury were very real, it took the power away from the fear that I felt about letting go of the injury.
Step Three: Asking for Guidance
Asking for guidance in making the decision to forgive was huge for me. I knew in my heart that I couldn't overcome this alone. I found people that understood where I was coming from. They may not have been through the exact same situation, but they understood my feelings. Those people had to be safe for me, and trustworthy. The support that they offered me was instrumental in my forgiveness. You don't ever have to go through anything alone. For me the people that I went to for support were people who had gone through this process before me. They knew my fears, they knew my hurt and pain, and they could walk through it with me because they've been there themselves.
Step Four: Admit that the injurer is sick
During this process, it allows you to see the person who has hurt you through a new pair of glasses. It allows you to have empathy for the person rather than be angry with them. It truly is a heart-healer. When I admitted that the person who abused me was just like a diabetic or someone who has cancer, it gave my heart satisfaction to really understand that the reason for the injury was because they were ill. It was at this point that I began the healing process.
Step Five: Look to see if YOU have a part
This was another key area in the process of forgiveness. It was important for me to make sure that my side of the street was clean. The Twelve Step programs really push their members to clean up all of their wrongs. When I identified my part in my abuse, it was another step towards not allowing it to happen again and to taking away the anger from what happened to me.
Step Six: Putting it Behind Me
The Lion King has a famous saying that I absolutely love. I'm not sure what character it was that said this, but he said, "You gotta put the behind past you," rather than, "You gotta put the past behind you." How true is it? If we want to move on with our lives, we must put the past behind us. If I keep looking at yesterday, then I'm totally missing out on today. And when I am looking at something that happened 10 years ago, then how many today's have I missed.
Step Seven: Choosing to Forgive
This is probably the hardest step in forgiveness. It is very empowering though to realize that we have a choice. We can either choose to allow our anger over the past to control us or we can choose to forgive and move on so that we can have the life that we've always longed for.
When we are so angry and are carrying so much pain, I describe it as a backpack full of stones. In the back pack are stones labeled anger, fear, jealousy, depression, etc.... How heavy is it to carry all of the stones around with you? Aren't you ready to put them down yet? The only way for us to put down that backpack is by making the choice to forgive. Are you ready to make that choice today?
Forgiveness Connects You To Abundance And Flow
By Enoch Tan
Forgiveness is for yourself more than it is for the person you forgive. Forgiveness is about connecting back to abundance and flow. When someone has wronged you, they have taken something from you or withhold you from something. It creates an energetic response within you in regards to the situation. Forgiveness is doing the inner work that resolves the energetic response and therefore liberates you from the external situation. Forgiveness doesn’t do nothing because it has a literal effect on actual reality.
Quantum physics states that the observable world manifest by probability waves being collapse through the act of observation. The timeline of events are just a sequence of probability waves being collapsed at specific points to create the effect of a continuous experience. Probability waves are collapsed into space time events through the act of focusing the mind. But defocusing the mind causes the exact opposite to happen. Reality is not as fixed as we think because it’s fluid and so forgiveness changes it.
The more we hold on to an idea in mind, the more we perpetuate its existence in physical reality. When we let go of a past event, we free ourselves from its karmic effects and therefore allow synchronicities to arise in the present as though we were in an alternate timeline all along. Forgiveness is for the purpose of not holding reality in place and preventing change. People and situations can change if you allow them to. If you do not forgive, you are not allowing yourself to experience the change made in people.
When you do not forgive someone who has truly changed although they may have greatly wronged you, then you are causing them needless suffering. It is equally as bad to do harm to another person as it is to withhold another person from good. When a person sincerely repents and seeks reconciliation, they want to experience good with you once again. But by not forgiving and accepting them back, you are perpetuating the experience of evil that was created. Why hold on to a wrong when you want a right?
If someone does not forgive and accept you again even though you have truly changed, you can still forgive that person for doing so. The key thing about forgiveness is that it lies with yourself and not with the other. It is alright if another person doesn’t forgive you. What you need is to forgive yourself and the other person. You can still forgive a person even if they do not change from the wrong they have done. You do not have to wait for change before you forgive. Forgiveness frees up people and reality for change.
Forgiveness is about releasing yourself from the wound you are holding on to. Others may have hurt you, but it is you who choose to keep the hurt or to dissolve it. When a person harbors resentment and unforgiveness, they are full of hurts. Live life free of hurts, wounds and emotional baggage as much as possible. When you are held back by a hurt from a person, you are disempowered in that area of your relationship towards them and to the world. Free yourself from hurts and you will live life with full power.
The act of forgiving is not about being right or wrong, but it is about being at peace. When you are at peace, you are being right. Because when you are not at peace, you are being wronged. Do you want to continue being wronged, or do you want to be at peace? Being at peace is being right with yourself because you are resonating with your true nature. They key to attracting all good in your life is being in a state of peace and joy. Others may be right or wrong, but what you need is a state of peace within.
When you forgive, you are living according to your true nature. If your property is damaged, it can be repaired. If something is stolen from you, it can be replaced. If you are insulted, you can be appeased. By holding on to loss or hurt, you are saying that you can be made less than what you are. But the truth is nothing can make you less than what you are or keep you from being all that you are. Because who you really are is all sufficient spirit. Forgiveness realigns your reality to its true state of wholeness.
The act of forgiving is also about allowing greater good to come in. Everything is working together for your highest good. The divine work of restoration makes things better than what it used to be and causes you to have more than what you used to have. Restoration is allowed to happen when you forgive and let go of what happened so that reality can reorder itself. You can choose to see something as good or bad. When you choose to see it as good, you allow it to turn out for good. All things are truly good.
Forgiveness is how you are able to love freely once again like you have never been hurt. The best kind of love is the carefree and free spirited kind of love. It is the fresh and untainted love that you originally have in your being. Each time you forgive again and again, you are able to love others anew. You are able to love with your whole heart without holding back any love that is in it. The invincible kind of love that comes from an untouchable spirit is what makes you fully happy with total freedom of expression.
The dept of your forgiveness is the dept of your love. The more a person has been forgiven by you, the more love they experience from you, and the more their heart would respond in kind. Because one who is forgiven little, loves little, and one who is forgiven much, the same would also love much. Forgiveness is all about being free to love with your whole heart again, and experiencing your true nature as a whole and indestructible being. To forgive is to be divine. Letting go allows reality to be better than ever.
"That moment inside of you where you forgive what's happened, is the moment when you are enlightening yourself"
