To forgive is to be set free

 

Happy thought provoking Thursday. Our positive quote of the day states: “To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you,” by Lewis B. Smedes.  Hurt, heartache, disappointments, unfair treatment, disillusionment, and biases. We may have been on the receiving end of some or all those and forgiveness is the furthest thing from our minds. Carrying around a grudge or resentment tethers us to that person or event which caused us pain. The only way through it is to forgive the person, the event, and ourselves. Forgiveness releases us; allowing us to focus on the future instead of the past. Forgiveness is freedom! #Beinspired #Forgiveness#LuminousQuotes
