we all know that forgiveness is an important idea or theme in reiki, whereas it allows you to let go of negative energies, and cut your cords to past events and people involved.
lately i feel as though i need to contact someone from my past and let him know i forgive him. i don't know if the spirit of christmas is getting to me, or if it's my higher self telling me it's time to let go and move on. i'm not sure how he will react to any message from me, we parted on bad terms. i want that to be forgotten..so we can both move on. can anyone put their feelers out there as to whether or not it's a good idea?
or just let me know your thoughts on forgiveness and letting people know they are forgave? sort of like, getting rid of your thoughts and giving them to someone else so that they no longer burden you? thanks.

Hi brokendoll Welcome to Free Reiki. It seems to be very important to you to let this person know that you forgive himm so that you can both move on.....so I would suggest that maybe you send him a card and a note, just to let him know that you forgive him......that way there is no pressure on him to reply, and it is up to him whether he does or not. I hope this helps love stef

Hey BrokenDoll Does it really matter if the person from your past get to know about your forgiveness? The forgiveness might be most important in your own heart, letting go of the old issue... and just send out loving energy to the person in question focus on yourself and your own feelings and the next time you happen to meet this person - simply show a positive loving attitude towards him/her and there might not be needed to bring up old issues... action is larger... words can sometimes complicate things... hm.... a different input anyway love Michael

hi Brokendoll~ I am so sorry you are having all of this pain. What you have to look at and this is my humble opinion, if you talk to them, will there be any impact on this person's life? I mean, will it bring up old hurtful feelings? Have they moved on? What I feel you might want to look at is, can you forgive yourself and move on? If you can't , I would try via letter or email. Put the ball into their court and see if they are willing to make amends with you. Bringing peace to yourself can be a huge revelation in your life, but be careful for the other person................ are they ready? This is just my opinion for what it's worth. I try to look at the whole picture before hand. Hope this helps you out. luv ruth
