Love people who hate you. Pray for people who have wronged you. It won't just change their life.…it'll change yours.
~Mandy Hale
Once we forgive we are given another chance to make a new beginning. We may not change the past with it but for sure we set a first step to a brighter future. It’s such a powerful energy because it sets us free. As long as we hold resentment towards another or a situation we are emotionally bound to it.
Remember that forgiveness is a virtue of the brave. The longer we hold a grudge, the heavier it weighs on our mind and soul.
We can fill our thoughts with love, compassion and positivity or we can allow negativity, hatred and anger to take up a large space. It’s up to us to choose...
When we make the choice to let go of what hurt us, the energy that had been trapped in this situation is coming back to us.
We are no longer stuck in the past when we forgive everything that has burdened us and kept us there. With everything we let go of, we grow beyond it.
Forgiveness happens within ourselves. We don't need an other person's reaction. But we can set them free as well. We offer a chance for a new energy. This is an honorable act.
To forgive is choosing love instead of judgement. We are receiving peace of heart and mind in return.
But we do not forgive for others. It is a gift to ourselves. We let go of the burden of our own wings that was so hard to carry. And we also forgive ourselves for giving away our power for so long. This is an opportunity to move forward in unimaginable ways.
It's one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself, to forgive. Forgive everybody.
Much love beautiful souls
