365 Pause Practices – Day 66

 

Who’s The Schmuck?

(meaning: idiot, fool, jerk)

How come we withhold forgiving like it is a precious commodity? We
are afraid that if we for-give this schmuck/idiot, this includes
ourselves when we are schmucks, they are going to get away with
their nonsense! Unfair labor tactics! Furthermore, we will be the
schmucks letting him/her get away with this nonsense! The gossip is
that no one is allowed to be set free from their nonsense and this
“no-one” needs to be forever held accountable for their nonsense.
After all, others are still holding us accountable for our nonsense!
Herein lies the decision to not for-give. Pause Yellow Book, LIVING

I’m a schmuck, you’re a schmuck, everywhere a schmuck, schmuck.

Inner Wisdom asks,

“What is my unforgiving stance towards this schmuck for? What purpose does it serve?”

Choose someone you think of as an idiot, fool, or jerk.

A Pause Forgiveness Practice



Setting a Schmuck Free and Myself at the Same Time

JOIN ME?

Pause

I admit there’s someone I think is a schmuck. I call upon Inner Wisdom for help because I really can’t stand this person, but I am willing to be free of judging this person. (If I am not ready to be free, I pause).

I call upon Inner Wisdom who willingly stands by to guide me on how to forgive.

I let all my thoughts about this person come to the surface of my mind; no matter mean, rude or judgmental; I let the muck for the schmuck show itself in my mind where Inner Wisdom is with me.

Now that I’ve let it all out, I pause. I take a few breaths to release any remaining sludge.

I rest in this now open, clear space in my mind. My mind is clear because I have given forgiveness and received forgiveness ~ one and the same.

Now it’s just me and Inner Wisdom; the schmuck is gone. Inner Wisdom asks, “What did you learn?” My answer is that I see how ridiculous it is for me to damn this person; it serves no helpful purpose; It accomplishes nothing of value.

Continue any ongoing inner conversation with Inner Wisdom as needed.

CONGRATULATIONS
