Start from loving yourself to be (2 / 5)

Discussion: Self-forgiveness.

Self-Forgiveness, according to author Shannon Kaiser, is not just about letting go of mistakes, but a process that leads to the "true freedom" of life.

• Acceptance of Human Nature: At the heart of forgiving oneself is the realization that "all men have ever made a wrong decision." Loving oneself is not to be a perfect person, but to dare to accept the truth of the past without reversing or repeatedly beating oneself.

• Turning criticism into a gentle voice: Often we are the most cruel to ourselves. Unforgiving is often expressed in the form of depressing words, such as "Why not be good at it?" or "I am bad," which is like "a knife that degrades our hearts every day." The author proposes that we try to forgive through talking to ourselves like saying to our loved ones, "It's okay. At least you're doing your best." Because gentle words are the best remedy for our hearts.

• Keys to Freedom: On the day when we dare to "forgive ourselves on the day of the fall" and stop seeking outside recognition to erase the guilt of our hearts, that is the day when we will return to true freedom. Happiness does not start with others coming to forgive or love us, but from looking back at the mirror and smiling at ourselves again with a compassionate heart.

• Caring for the Only True Friend in Life: The author emphasizes that we should forgive ourselves because "we are the only true friends who will stay with us for the rest of our lives." If we do not forgive this friend, we must live with inner conflict and emptiness forever,

• Continuous practice: Forgiving yourself is not something that is done once and then over, but "practicing every day." Like watering a heart tree that may have some dry days or make some mistakes, but if we still return to replenish water (give yourself a chance and forgive), the tree of happiness will always grow.

Compare: Unforgiving ourselves is like "carrying a heavy stone called the past," walking forward all the time. The farther we walk, the more tired we are and invisible to the beauty around us. So forgiving ourselves is not to say that guilt never happened, but to "put that stone down" so that our hands are free enough to grab the present happiness and walk gently.

+ "Forgive yourself" is a non-creation, a kind of anger, a kind of anger in your own mind.

... Read moreการให้อภัยตัวเองเป็นหนึ่งในกระบวนการที่สำคัญที่สุดที่ช่วยให้เราเติบโตและมีความสุขในชีวิตประจำวัน บ่อยครั้งที่เรามักตั้งความคาดหวังสูงและตำหนิตัวเองเมื่อเกิดข้อผิดพลาด เช่น การทำงานผิดพลาดหรือความสัมพันธ์ที่ไม่ราบรื่น แต่เมื่อผมเริ่มฝึกให้อภัยตัวเอง ผมพบว่าชีวิตเปลี่ยนไปอย่างน่าอัศจรรย์ ในชีวิตจริง การให้อภัยตัวเองไม่ใช่แค่การพูดคำว่า "ขอโทษ" หรือปล่อยวางแบบผิวเผิน แต่เป็นการกล้าเผชิญหน้ากับความเจ็บปวดในใจ รับรู้และยอมรับความผิดพลาดในอดีตโดยไม่โทษตัวเองอย่างรุนแรง ซึ่งสิ่งนี้จะช่วยลดความเครียดและภาระทางจิตใจจนทำให้รู้สึกเบาสบายขึ้น อีกสิ่งหนึ่งที่ผมพบว่ามีประโยชน์มากคือการพูดกับตัวเองด้วยคำพูดที่อ่อนโยนเหมือนกับที่เราจะพูดกับเพื่อนสนิท เช่น "ไม่เป็นไรนะ เธอทำดีที่สุดแล้ว" หรือ "ความผิดพลาดครั้งนี้เป็นแค่บทเรียนที่สอนให้เราแข็งแกร่งขึ้น" คำพูดในลักษณะนี้กลายเป็นแรงสนับสนุนที่จะช่วยยกระดับจิตใจและเพิ่มพลังในการเดินหน้าต่อไป นอกจากนี้ การให้อภัยตัวเองยังเปรียบเสมือนการปล่อยวาง "ก้อนหินหนักชื่อว่าอดีต" ที่บางครั้งเรายังแบกไว้หนักหน่วงจนทำให้เบาใจไม่ได้ เมื่อเราวางก้อนหินนั้นลง เราจะสามารถสัมผัสกับความงามของปัจจุบันได้มากขึ้น และมีพลังใจในการสร้างอนาคตที่ดีขึ้น จุดสำคัญอีกประการหนึ่งคือ เราควรฝึกให้อภัยตัวเองอย่างต่อเนื่อง เพราะจิตใจของคนเราอาจมีวันที่รู้สึกแย่หรือทำผิดพลาดได้เป็นธรรมดา เหมือนต้นไม้ที่ต้องการน้ำเพื่อเติบโต การให้อภัยตัวเองเป็นประจำจะกลายเป็นบรรยากาศที่ช่วยให้ความสุขภายในใจของเราเติบโตอย่างยั่งยืน เมื่อนำแนวคิดเหล่านี้มาปรับใช้ในชีวิต ผมเชื่อว่าทุกคนจะพบกับ "อิสรภาพที่แท้จริง" จากความทุกข์และความผิดหวังในอดีต และเริ่มต้นมอบความรัก ความเมตตา ให้กับตัวเองอย่างที่ควรได้รับ ซึ่งเป็นพื้นฐานสำคัญของความสุขอย่างแท้จริงในทุกช่วงเวลาของชีวิต
