I do not allow others to influence my thinking unless it is positive or uplifting.

Forgiving someone does not mean you condone their behavior. The act of forgiveness takes place in your own mind. It really has nothing to do with the other person. The reality of true forgiveness lies in setting ourselves free from holding on to the pain. It is simply an act of releasing yourself from the negative energy.

I know that I cannot take responsibility for other people. We are all under the law of our own consciousness.

Be willing to take the first step, no matter how small it is. Concentrate on the fact that you are willing to learn. Absolute miracles will happen.

Your thoughts are like the seeds you plant in your garden. Your beliefs are like the soil in which you plant these seeds.

I am open and receptive to all the good and abundance in the Universe.

I think you can learn to have much more pleasant thoughts moving through your mind that will help ease any situation, and it takes making a conscious choice to do so.
