The value of forgiveness
Forgiveness can indeed be difficult. Yet in the long run, it
is far easier to forgive than to live with resentment or
continuing retribution.<P>
Through forgiveness, you can move away from the pains of the
past. With forgiveness, you can achieve real freedom.<P>
There are always opportunities to benefit from the value of
forgiveness. You can forgive yourself, you can forgive
others, and you can forgive even when you don't know exactly
who to forgive.<P>
Because forgiveness is not about who is to blame or who is
at fault. Forgiveness is mostly about letting go, completely
and permanently, within yourself.<P>
Forgiveness is recognizing the reality that what has
happened has happened, and that there's no point in allowing
it to dominate your life. Forgiveness refreshingly clears
the slate and enables you to move positively forward.<P>
Carrying around a load of resentment can be an enormous and
unnecessary burden. Forgive early and often, and you'll
considerably lighten your load.<P>
