Forgiveness is often defined as an process of letting go of feelings and thoughts of resentment, bitterness, anger towards someone who we believe has wronged us, including ourselves.
This is the actual definition of forgiveness according to many. What is forgiveness according to you ? Have you ever thought that it could actually mean something beyond the above set of words.
Forgiveness is not something which is given or earned easily. Sometimes it's really very easy and too simple to ask for or beg pardon. But pardoning someone or ourselves is not so simple.
It takes alot. One has to fight their inner demons and turmoils to be able to forgive someone including ourselves. If a person holds grudge's of past without letting it go then they become bitter not only towards others but also towards themselves.
Forgiving doesn't mean you are weak or are able to let go of things too easily. No! It simply means you are strong enough to overcome your past mistakes and also by forgiving others you are making them realise that you are anything but them.
There is difference between you and them. Forgive but never forget the lessons from your past. One should always move forward in life but at the same time just don't forget what your past has thought you. Forgiveness also gives one inner peace and a sense of calmness.
Thank you..
Stay blessed and happy.
