Everyone does the best they can based on where they’re at. Once you get this insight, you’ll be less upset with hurtful people and more forgiving.

To carry anger within you over what someone did to you is to degrade your creativity, productivity and serenity. Being mistreated is nothing more than a training camp to build your strength to forgive.

And to forgive really is to be strong and powerful versus weak. So, forgive. Today. Please.

I do appreciate that this is easier written than done. Yet this fact doesn’t reduce the value of my encouragement to get great at this skill.
