A virtue i used to possess by lost along the way somehow...perhaps through the turmoil and battles i've experienced..there is a real need re-inculcate the act of forgivness... it is much stronger, not to mention much wiser, than vengeance or retribution...i really need this for myselfforgiveness is not a sweet old lady but a strong, seasoned veteran of many wars.....forgiveness bears a greater burden than vengeance ever could....vengeance lets hatred rule you....forgiveness overrules hatred....it is not only stronger... it is also much more clever and wise than vengeance or retribution.....forgiveness takes intelligence, discipline, courage and persistence and special psychological strength...
What does it mean to give up the title to anger and resentment or to refuse to live under their rule?
guess it means setting free from those feelings....no longer letting those feelings own me..when i feel hatred start to take me in its grip, i need to step out...lift it off...renounce it...perhaps channeling it onto love might be a better solution..i hope i'm up to it... in order to improve my own life...
"forgiveness is not something we do for other people. we do it for ourselves to get well and move on"
