Guidelines for submission:

1.) Choose a quiet, private place to write your letter.

2.) Sit down, close your eyes, and focus your attention inward.

3.) Ask the "wisest" part -- or the "intuitive" part of you to be the author of your letter.

4.) Write your first draft prior to submitting to amendsproject.com. Feel free to put as much emotion into it as you want to. Allow any anger, bitterness, resentment, or shame to be expressed in this draft.

5.) Sit with your first draft. Notice any emotions that might come up. Honor these emotions as the pain you have carried from the past -- into the NOW.

6.) Call a friend, clergy member, or professional counselor if your emotions overwhelm you.

7.) When you are ready to begin letting go, review your letter and notice the places where you still carry hurt, anger, blame.

8.) Ask your "intuitive Self" if you are willing to let these pains from the past go.

9.) When you are ready, meditate on or pray for the ability to be released from your suffering. Make a commitment to yourself, to FREE YOURSELF FROM THE PAST.

10.) Begin your next draft. Remove all parts of the letter that communicate your pain and suffering.

11.) Search yourself for authentic gratitude about this person or this area of your life. List those things. Be generous here. The extent to which you are able to be LOVING and COMPASSIONATE can have a direct impact on the extent to which you experience relief from your suffering.

12.) At this point, remove any names from your letter, including your own. This project is anonymous, and uses only first initials. If you submit your letter with a name, it will be changed to a first initial.

13.) You may want to share your letter with a close friend or counselor to gain a more objective perspective on your willingness to forgive in your letter, and in your life in general.

14.) When you have completed your next draft, submit it in the form below. Be sure to put an "X" in the box showing you read and agree with the legal statement.

"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." -Lewis B. Smedes "When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is stronger than steel. Forgiveness is the only way to dissolve that link and get free." -Catherine Ponder Then said Jesus, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." -Luke 23:34 "Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were." -Cherie Carter-Scott Author, "If Love is a Game, These are the Rules"	Submit your letter here:
