[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forgiveness isn't something you give someone because they apologized. It's something you give yourself -- the freedom to stop carrying around the hurt, the freedom to stop expecting something that's not going to happen, the freedom to use that space in your head for something else. "Forgiveness is giving up hope of having had a different past." It doesn't mean you forget what they did, but you cancel the debt. Stop expecting them to repay you. Spend as much or as little time with them as you want. Let it go and see what you can do with the energy you have now that you'd dropped that load. [/quote] +1 When you're able to forgive, you lighten your own load. Oprah talks about it as letting go. Here is a link to an Oprah Daily. It has a very strong and salient message for us all.
