Forgiveness is getting out of prison

Forgiveness doesn’t mean what happened was okay. No way! Forgiveness doesn’t mean you accept the past unacceptable behavior as being a good thing. It doesn’t mean we are all good buddies as if it hadn’t happened. Forgiveness doesn’t mean that you deny the other person’s responsibility for hurting you, and it doesn’t minimize or justify the wrong. You can forgive the person without excusing the act.

Forgiveness means you refuse to be locked in a personal prison where the bars are made of rage, anger, and resentment.

Forgiveness means you are taking a huge step  to have peace within yourself. This occurs only when you forgive yourself for letting it happen. Forgiveness occurs when you care to have a better future than past.

Forgiveness lessens the grip that the event or person had on your life. Forgiveness can even lead to feelings of understanding, empathy and compassion for the one who hurt you. I like what Confucius said: To be wronged is nothing unless you continue to remember it..

Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge your future! The truth is that forgiveness is the sweetest revenge.
