A few definitions of forgiveness from a book I read today :
- Forgiveness is the process of reframing one's anger and hurt from the past,with the goal of recovering one's peace in the present and revitalizing one's purpose and hopes for the future.
- Forgiveness is giving up my right to hurt you for hurting me.
- Our friends are those who know their own faults well enough to forgive ours.
- Forgiveness is the feeling of peace that emerges as you take the hurt less personally,take responsibility for how you feel and become a hero instead of a victim in the story you tell... Forgiveness means that even though you are wounded,you choose to hurt and suffer less.
- He who cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he himself must travel.
Our healthy condition hinged upon our willingness to forgive as said. May God help us in this important self reflections.
