Forgiveness
I think this is something a lot of people struggle with including myself.
There’s things that happen in life to us that don’t seem fair or seem petty but are they really that big of a deal? Maybe but zoom out and look at the big picture.
Is the thing that happened going to “ruin” your whole life forever or just as long as you let it?
We can’t control what others do but we can control how we react to them.
Forgiveness is about showing love and compassion and knowing that things won’t always go our way and being ok with that. Forgiveness also shows growth and maturity. It doesn’t doesn’t mean you have to continually give yourself to that person or whoever it may be but it’s tells them that “hey, I understand what happened, I learned and grew from it, and I will no longer allow it to affect my life.”
Forgiveness is not necessarily made for their sake but yours and to allow you to be set free of you’re angry and guilt and to see clearer.
As long as you can see it in your heart and understand that no matter what happens you’ll be ok then I got news for you, you’ll be ok!
