Forgiveness

It took me a long time to understand what it means to forgive someone. I always wondered how I could forgive someone who chose to hurt me? But after a lot of soul searching. I realized something. Forgiveness isn't about accepting or excusing their behavior... it's about letting go and preventing their behavior from destroying your heart.

Holding a grudge doesn't make you strong; it makes you bitter.
Forgiving doesn't make you weak; it sets you free.

People make mistakes. Nobody is perfect.

Sorry is nothing, the real apology comes when you can look into their eyes and see they hurt themselves just as much.

Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness.

Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.

Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward.
