Forgiveness, Simplicity, Shadow Self, Transparency

Your life should be based on simplicity. Unfortunately, most people have way too much going on to make life simple. A key step is to simplify the co-called material necessities in your life. Examine what is truly essential and what you could easily do without. Give away all but the most essential items and your life will be much simpler. Look also at your inner baggage that you carry. Everyone has shadows that prevent them from becoming pure. These are habits, desires, addictions, and mindsets that hold you in the past and that rob you of spiritual energy. Also included are grudges that you hold against others for any manner of past slights and insults. Be willing to completely forgive yourself as well as all others for any failings you may have perceived. By forgiving yourself and others you will feel much lighter and your life will become much more transparent. Then you will become free to follow any path or adopt any role that may be needed for your growth. With simplicity comes a sense of freedom to explore and experience the world in a way that is impossible when you are burdened with both the physical and psychological baggage from the past.
