Empathy, the power of compassion is perhaps the greatest gift we can give not only to others, but ourselves.  A deeper knowing comes upon us when we learn the power of putting others first.

It's what we'd want if we were hurting.  When we are in pain we seek only the empathy of others.  When others are hurt around us it is the most powerful way of being.  In empathy we find love.  In empathy we find peace and solace.  In empathy we find our own power.  It is through compassion for others we understand life in a much greater way.  In this way of being we are able to connect to people in a way that is so heartfelt and moving it can only elevate our awareness and consciousness and inevitably those around us.  We are received so magnificently when we come from a place of heartfelt love, compassion and empathy.  We connect in ways God wants us to connect.  We are one with those around us when we feel them, their pain, their sorrow....

Yes we can transform.  There is more cosmic  support now than ever.  It’s an incredible perspective for us to consider now with everything going in the planetary alignments.

Radical Forgiveness - quite the radical suggestion.  This is not forgiveness in it's typical fashion by any means, but a radical means of forgiving and moving past hurt.  Radical forgiveness not only frees us to a place of self empowered awareness, but it is transformational in the respect that you are changed as a result.  When we forgive in this way we are not the same.  We are better. We are transformed.  We are lighter and have not just forgiven, but we've moved above and beyond the hurt to better ourselves. It gives us an opportunity for great self awareness because we are forgiving not just the person who pained us, but perhaps a deep seated hurt we have been carrying for many years, perhaps even lifetimes.
