Resentments accumulate every day, it is like picking up rocks and putting them in your pocket. When you collect the rocks and hold on to them day after day, month after month, the burden grows. When you refuse to let resentments go, you are weighed down by the hurt and anger you carry.

Forgiveness means looking beyond behaviors. Without condoning hurtful actions, you accept that each of us is doing the best we can in that moment. The truth is that we are all innocent children and nothing can diminish or change that. By releasing the belief that it is possible to lose your good or lose your power, you can let go of the negativity weighing you down and forgiveness to flow into your life. When you are free of resentment, judgment and condemnation, you are able to love others, to laugh and to live joyfully.

What then can you want that forgiveness does not offer?
