Forgiveness

We often think forgiveness is us doing another a favor and thus think it's a punishment to them.

But in reality, forgiveness is us doing ourselves a favor and bringing peace to our being.

Unforgiveness breeds hate and hate needs to feed, either a constant reminder of what the person or the situation did to us and that reminder further revives the hate, hurt us, and drains us... 

When we look at this we see this constant energy poured into hate ends up hurting us more than it does the other person or the situation and if not put to an end we may even end up becoming that which we hate the most...

But when we forgive that person or situation then our heart is lightened and filled with love. 

Love brings peace, love grows with happiness and joy.
