Forgiveness



In my life I have made mistakes.  I have made poor decisions.  I have done or said things that were inappropriate and down right wrong.  I am not perfect.

I have tried, with each poor decision, to learn a lesson.  Some lessons have been easier to learn then others.  I am still trying.  I am not perfect.

I have made peace with mistakes I have made and in turn found forgiveness from others.  I have owned up to my wrong doings and forgiven myself.  Some forgiveness is harder to achieve then others.  I am not perfect.

I have forgiven those who have wronged me.  In realizing I am not perfect I have learned that others are not perfect either. 

These are some of the most beautiful lessons that life has taught me. 

"Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace." -Buddha

Good Morning!

Just to let you know your "Forgiveness" post made me cry. It is so true. Anyone who says this doesn't hit home for them is a liar! Thanks for the reminder.

Hugs, P~

It's the best gift you can give yourself. When you forgive others, you can move on and love freely.
