Jen Weigel, author of the “Lessons for Life” column in the Chicago Tribune, recently wrote an interesting column about author/speaker Wayne Dyer.  One of the things Dr. Dyer commented on in her column was the role forgiveness plays in achieving our dreams.  He said we have to learn to forgive the unforgiveable.  When Dr. Dyer was young, he and his brother were farmed off to foster homes.  “My father abandoned us,” he said.  “Here’s the most important person in my life and I never met him.”  The column went on to say that even though Dr. Dyer never met his father, he still managed to forgive him after he died. “I went to his grave site and I was able to forgive him and get rid of my rage and anger,” he said. “Until you are able to do that with anyone in your life – whether it’s family or a friend, or someone you work with – you can’t move forward and bring true joy into your life.”
