truly forgive the people that have hurt me

”..I need to forgive myself.. my guilt is getting the best out of me.. I have to accept my mistakes and move on so that I can have the courage to also forgive others.. to understand that people are not perfect, and like me, we all have done wrong.. no matter how bad we thought we have been.. I think the most important part of this realization is that I am really sorry for what I did.. and that I am willing to do my best to pay for that.. and eventhough others whom have hurt me don’t say sorry nor ask for my forgiveness.. I have to be open to the fact that they too are having a hard time forgiving themselves.. healing is a process.. it takes time.. but I know that pain teaches us to be humble and to be compassionate to the hurts of others.. after all, we are only human.. we need to be forgiven as well as to forgive..”

”..i can’t believe how much i hold on to my pains.. i should start to learn about letting go and moving on.. growing outside of my usual self.. i must focus on all that is positive and all that is happy.. and everyday in silence, i say to those who have hurt me.. i forgive you..”

”..this one takes time.. but i’m opening my heart and i’m starting to let go of all the hurts that is holding me back to move on with my life.. i realized that life should not be lived in pain but in happiness and peace.. and without true forgiveness, there can never be freedom from all the aches i’ve experienced.. i must be free.. i am not afraid.. that’s why i forgive..”
