Is it hard for you to forgive? Maybe this would help.

 

A lot of times when someone has hurt us. We tend to carry that hurt around as unwanted baggage. We become bitter to the thought of letting that person back into our lives and in many case wish misfortunate upon that person because we are so angry. Sitting around thinking of a way to get that person back for what they have done to you or praising because karma has worked her magic.

Bring back memories huh? What if I told you that forgiveness is not for them but for you? Truth be told a lot of times we are hurt and angry about something that happened in the past and that person probably don’t even have a clue that your holding a grudge against them. They’re living their lives happy and your stuck because you have simply allowed them to steal your happiness.

When a person can control how you feel causing you not enjoy the days you have on this earth. They have control over you without even knowing. No one should have the power to make you avoid anything, and when we carry baggage we tend to avoid situations where we would run into that person. We would ask questions like “Is he/she going to be there? If so I don’t want to be caught in the same location with that person”. That’s not how you should live your life. Believe it our not the best thing you can do for your self is to forgive.

Forgiveness is the best revenge. Being kind to a person who have harmed you. Rather it was verbally, mentally, physically, or emotionally would baffle them more then being bitter towards them. You have to realize that everyone has hurt someone in the past including you. Sometimes people feel bad for the hurt they have caused. So forgive them and let it go after all you want those you have harmed to forgive you.
