Love lesson 11: Always forgive because the best way to heal is to move on
One of the hardest things to do is forgive, but you’re giving the other person power over you if you don’t.
I’m not telling you to forgive someone to make them happy don’t do it for them do it for you.
Holding on to hate and anger is not healthy so why let them have power over you.
Growing up I had a very abusive father he would beat me and my brothers on a daily basis.
He did a lot of other things that are unforgivable.
But staying mad at him was giving him power over me and my life, and he didn’t deserve that.
I couldn’t be the best wife and mother I could be while holding on to all this pain.
So, I let it go I forgave him for all the pain he caused me.
No, I will never forget but I had to put it behind me and I am happier then I have been in a long time.
I tell you my stories because I have been through a lot, but the greatest way for mw to move on is to help others.
So next time you think it’s okay to hold grudges remember that your only giving them power over you.
The best way to take away their power is to forgive them.
