Forgiveness

Forgiveness comes from the realization that I cannot have a better past.  It is an understanding of my wholeness without the need for another’s actions.  It is the decision to lift the burden of judgment from my ways and walking and to free myself of conditional living  (I’ll feel better when….I’ll have happiness if….).  A paradox: forgiving the other does not necessarily change that person.  Forgiving the other changes me.
