Taking time for yourself May not happen often. PAUSE So, give yourself this time, This precious space, You are deserving, And can’t be replaced. PAUSE Now, take a minute, And let thoughts of life go by. Are there hurts or pains That left you sidelined? PAUSE  So, take a minute And slowly see that pain, Try to visualize it from a distance So there’s no refrain. PAUSE And, now breathe into those hurts That linger from the past. Visualize your breath healing So they no longer hold you back. PAUSE And, now comes the challenge, So take a deep breath or two. And ready yourself to forgive Those who’ve hurt you. PAUSE Take it gentle and slow, Breathing deep all the way, And remember forgiveness  Is a gift for you– It's not something you give it away. PAUSE And while growing in your forgiveness– This great gift to you– Remember that, for centuries, writers and poets and musicians Have shared this gift, too. PAUSE For, without forgiveness, We can’t understand Why we aren’t moving on, Why we’re stuck in quicksand. PAUSE So, breathe in the freedom, Its power is limitless. And know this doesn’t mean Your hurt is frivolous. PAUSE In the words of Maya Angelou, “Forgiveness is the key To action and freedom.” In other words… It gives you the power to move on.
