How to be forgiving
It made me
Grateful 
"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.

Being forgiving is not easy, but i’m willing to try because I know it will make me happier.
As of this moment I forgive everyone that has done something bad to me, i forgive the people that have betrayed me, that have lied to me, that have hurt me…it’s all in the past now.
:)
It doesnt mean ill FORGET though! bwahaha.
but you are 100% forgiven ;)

I saw a person that I was having a hard time forgiving the other day, and I discovered I am not feeling angry at that person now. I was happy to see the person, actually. Trust is another matter, though.

Forgive Attempt

I’m not so sure how it went. I said it but the person I forgave didn’t seem to hear me or acknowledge that I even said something. When I said it again the person rejected my forgiveness because they felt they didn’t deserve it. At least I feel like I’ve let go of my anger now. Have I really forgiven if they reject it??

I need to let go of my need to assign blame and to seek retribution when destructive or negative behaviors by other affect me.

I feel so betrayed and hurt. I thought that we had something special going on. A rebuild for the future. A legacy. And now the rug is pulled from under me. I have been dunked under the water and am struggling for air. Now I am angry. Really angry. At first I just thought that it would work out so I was hopeful. Today I realized that there is no hope left.
I probably deserve this somehow. This on top of every other f-cking thing that has gone wrong this year. I am sure that others have cursed me.
I cannot look him in the eye.
Was it planned? Was it an accident? Was it just circumstance or was it intentional?
I cannot forgive him.

I probably got this from my dad… and partly from my mom.
I forgive people a bit too easily. Sometimes if big drama comes up, I wish I weren’t as forgiving.
