We have the capacity to be awake and to see the world as it is with a graciousness and an understanding.
As the poet Mary Oliver writes, "To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go."
This is our dance, our human incarnation: to tend and love that which is ephemeral.

Jack guides a powerful meditation practice called the three directions of forgiveness. First, we ask for forgiveness from those weβve harmed. Second, we offer forgiveness to ourselves for any of the ways weβve caused ourselves suffering or pain. Finally, to the extent that weβre ready, we offer forgiveness to anyone who has caused us harm.
βLet the sweet nectar of forgiveness fill your consciousness and your bodyβ¦ You can do this, you can be forgiven.β β Jack Kornfield
This meditation is from Heart Wisdom ep. 135: The Forgiving Heart. https://jackkornfield.com/ep-135-the-forgiving-heart/
