Why Forgive - Part 2
Welcome to Why Forgive part 2: The keys to freeing yourself. Join Margaret as she explores why people often find it hard to forgive and why society is comfortable clinging to the past and to trauma. Discover how to embrace, let go and change your life, learn how to become more loving and compassionate, and understand how to forgive in this episode of Today I Am Alive!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Why do people find it hard to forgive? Forgiveness is difficult because human consciousness has a hard time living in the present. If we keep anger and resentment in our hearts, then we have no space. No space for living in the now.
- Even though the hurt has been done to us, what remains is simply a thought, a feeling, a persistent memory, replaying the scene over and over again, stored in our subconscious mind. Resentment and anger are locked in our hearts.
- It feels more comfortable clinging to trauma, bitterness and resentment than doing the thing that scares us so much. Letting go and embracing the change that enters our lives.
- Even if forgiveness may not be acknowledged or accepted, it is crucial to our own healing and personal and spiritual. Allowing us to take a more loving and compassionate stance towards ourselves.
BEST MOMENTS
“A few years on my healing journey of forgiving. I had a deeper awakening about forgiveness while attending a three-day spiritual seminar in Oxford.”
“Nursing those thoughts or grievances lingers in our mind. “
“The root of trauma is deep. Many of us often cling to bitterness and resentment.”
“Forgiveness allows us to take our power back, to let go of the negative energy that weighs us down and keeps us mentally stuck.”
“We think we are imprisoning those who have hurt us by not forgiving them. Wrong. What has happened has happened. We cannot change that. Now is the time to forgive.”

ABOUT THE HOST
A few years ago, Margaret underwent several life-threatening traumas, including domestic abuse, and almost killed by her ex-partner, kidney and brain cancer, mental health issues, and a near-death experience. Her life was encapsulated in darkness, and she welcome the thought of dying. From a breakdown to a breakthrough, these words from Viktor Frankl’s book, Man's Search For Meaning, changed her life forever: “The existence of life is to suffer; to survive is to find meaning in suffering.” Once she came aware of this, her life changed, and choose to live each day like it's her last…
