Forgiveness

“The pain was necessary to know the truth, but we don’t have to keep the pain alive to keep the truth alive.” – Mark Nepo

It is not the better part of our wisdom to create our identity by our past hurts and pains. The more we hold on to our burning anger and resentment at those who have harmed us, the more our wounds stay open. We rationalize that we seek justice, fairness, apology. We must reclaim our power. Stop waiting for something magical to come and heal us. We must heal ourselves.


When we forgive we do not excuse the past hurtful behavior, with forgiveness comes our own healing. We exchange resentment for inner freedom. When we let go and forgive, we can heal and live.
