How to be forgiving
"One of the hardest things I've ever done."
How I did it: I don't even know. I think its a matter of time and letting go. It probably took me so long because I wasn't ready to let go of the anger. Anger was all I had left of the situation. My life looked like a bomb had gone off. After I picked up all the pieces I only had anger left.. and letting go of it was frightening. I also learned that forgiving someone what more for myself than for the other person. It doesn't matter if they don't hear me or don't feel like they deserve my forgiveness. I needed it to move on. Now I just need to forgive myself!
Lessons & tips: Give it time... lots of time.
