Forgiveness is like opening the door to a cage that you’ve been locked inside only to realize you built the cage and had the key the whole time.
When we hold on to anger and resentment, it doesn’t harm the person who hurt us—it harms us. It weighs us down, clouds our thoughts, and steals our peace.
The Power of Forgiveness Forgiveness isn’t about condoning or forgetting—it’s about choosing peace.
Recognize Unresolved Issues Identify things that are taking up space in your mind and heart. Is it an argument, a betrayal, or a lingering hurt? Anything that disrupts your peace is worth addressing.
Understand That Forgiveness Is a Choice Forgiveness is not something that happens to you; it’s something you decide to do. It’s not about them—it’s about reclaiming your peace and power. By choosing to forgive, you release the hold that anger and pain have on your life.
Let Go of the Emotional Weight Think of resentment as carrying a heavy backpack filled with stones. Each grievance adds another stone. Forgiveness allows you to take that backpack off and finally set it down. It’s not about saying the pain didn’t matter—it’s about deciding it won’t control you anymore.
Remember, forgiveness doesn’t change the past, but it transforms the present—and your future.
