MORAL REDEMPTION IN ACTION.

I came across the pic on Facebook. I was so taken with it I decided I had to write about it. This man is showing real life talk in action. He is also receiving forgiveness. Forgiveness and real talk go together. This is the only way healing can begin.

These two key components are the ingredients that go into the moral redemption of not just individuals, but society as well.

For those that doubt that the moral redemption of society is possible, here it is before your own eyes.

Remember that we have to talk about real personal life challenges. The person listening must do so with deep concentration upon what is being said, not listening with the intent of coming up with an answer to give, but to listen to what is really being said. Listening intently goes beyond just hearing. It involves all of the senses: Most importantly it involves opening your heart to what is being said.

When you listen to real talk, which takes tremendous bravery to do, remember that the listener has an equally important task of responding with true forgiveness, which can also take tremendous bravery to do.

Why would someone want to open their heart, and bare their soul to make the lives of others in society a better place to live if forgiveness is not equally involved.

This combination of real talk, and of real forgiveness is what brings about personal moral redemption. It opens peaceful communication. No signs, no rallies, no protests: Simply real human beings learning how to become humane beings. And Humane Beings together bring about the moral redemption of society.

Try it yourself if the moral redemption of society means something to you. Remember, Real Talk +Real Forgiveness, = Real Positive Change.

It begins with you.

My Best, with Love,
