Forgiveness

Something that I have been learning this week is forgiveness. This isn't only forgiveness of others but forgiveness of myself. The group I mentioned in my last post, I have spent many years running from and hiding because I was ashamed. I'm not sure why I was so ashamed maybe because it has a bad reputation but I, like all the others, had a good time and that is the main thing. If it makes you happy and you aren't hurting anyone else in the process then that is all good.

I have also been forgiving myself for not doing as much exercise as I normally do this week, but sometimes you need the rest I think. We can't all be 'go go go'. This is what the lockdown is teaching us. To get the rest and take it easy. So that is what I have done. I have missed the exercise but I know I will get back on it next week.

We need to forgive ourselves during this time. It is important under normal circumstances but even more important now.
