Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness
forces you to grow beyond what you were.
When you forgive, you in no way change the
past but you sure do change the future.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the
attribute of the strong.
It takes courage and commitment to act in a
more forgiving fashion. It is not at all a sign of
weakness but a mark of strength.
Forgiveness is a gift you give to yourself. It is
not something you do FOR someone else.
Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it
feels more painful than the wound we suffered,
to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there
is no peace without forgiveness.
Forgiveness means letting go of the past.
Forgive all who have offended you, not for
them, but for yourself.
