Forgiveness

   When you love someone or so much as care for them it doesn't matter what mistakes they make or how much they disappoint you, If  you really love them and you really care you will find it in your heart to forgive them. Keeping in mind that you yourself are human and for from perfect . We all make mistakes and will continue to make mistakes. God forgives us no matter how big we mess up even if you don't believe in him he still loves you and he still cares.

   Forgiveness is not just to benefit the person to which the forgiveness is granted, but it also benefits the person who grants the forgiveness. What sense does it make holding un-forgiveness in your heart ? Wouldn't  it be better to forgive and forget instead of keeping the anger, pain and disappointment all bottled up inside. It poisons you and makes you bitter towards people and life. Un-forgiveness is like a chain that keeps you bound , holding you back from going further in life.if you are always thinking of what was done to you in the past how will you heal ? And what happens when you treat other people badly just because of someone else's mistakes.that wouldn't be fair.

   You would then be the cause of someone else's pain. What if they don't forgive you and it goes on, A perpetuating cycle of  un-forgiveness and pain , Just because you couldn't be big enough , strong enough to forgive.  It takes humility to forgive not everyone is that humble. Maybe the reason you were disappointed was because your ego is too big, you're too proud, too self righteous. If you exalt yourself above others holding them to standards that you yourself fail to meet it is easy for them to disappoint you. If you just humble yourself just enough to forgive it would set you free.
