I love moments like this (01/01/07) Dear Diary, Well it's day #1 of the new year and when I woke up this morning my first thought was...yuck, it's so gloomy outside, but then I smiled because I realized it's not gloomy inside..inside me that is and that's all that matters. Having my morning coffee, I decided to open my "how to manual" as I've come to call it. That book that I've been turning too for inspiration, that book that has been talking to me for the past several months. I love how I can just open it up at any random page and something, some thought, just jumps out at me. This morning was no different...I once again had one of those moments...call it a light bulb moment..a ah-ha moment..whatever the catch phrase is these days...I had it! As I read about the importance of forgiveness and how, if I want to move on, I must first let go, stop making excuses...forgive those that have hurt me... a thought suddenly occurred to me...the most important person that I need to forgive is........ME The way I see it... I can forgive those that hurt me, but if I don't let it go, I am the one that is hurting me...not them. Funny, as I write this, I am reminded about how everyone talks about "baggage" and with my mission of downsizing, I'm thinking it's time to take out the baggage and leave it at the curb where it belongs. Lucky me, now I can get that cute little overnight bag I saw a few weeks ago... Life...ya gotta love it! C.

Hi AlwaysNemo: This is a very meaningful blog for me to read today. I have been carrying around so much hurt and so many resentments all my life because of my dysfunctional family. No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to forgive them and forget everything that happened as everyone is in denial and won't discuss anything. What is the name of the book you are talking about?
