You find that the injustice that created a wound is no longer true, right now, in this moment

In the teachings of Miguel Ruiz, author of "The Four Agreements," the concept of letting go of past injustices and wounds is a central theme. Ruiz emphasizes the importance of living in the present moment and releasing the grip that past hurts have on our lives. One of the agreements he encourages people to make with themselves is to not take things personally, which includes not holding onto past injustices.

When we hold onto past wounds, we allow them to continue to hurt us in the present moment. We carry the pain and anger with us, allowing it to affect our relationships, our decisions, and our overall well-being. However, Ruiz teaches that we have the power to change our perspective and release ourselves from the burden of past injustices.

In the moment that we realize that the injustice that created a wound is no longer true, we are able to free ourselves from its hold. We can recognize that holding onto anger and resentment only serves to harm ourselves, not the person who caused the injustice. By letting go of the past, we can create space for healing and growth in our lives.

Ruiz also teaches the importance of forgiveness in the process of releasing past wounds. Forgiveness does not mean condoning the actions of others or forgetting the harm that was done. Instead, it is a way of freeing ourselves from the negative emotions that hold us back. When we forgive, we are able to move forward with a sense of peace and acceptance.
