Forgiving Others

'After a good dinner one can forgive anybody, even one's own relatives.'
-Oscar Wilde

************************************************

In this life we will encounter people who will do and say unkind
things to us...and some of them may be our relatives! But we have the power to choose how their actions will effect us. We can choose how we will react to the people and situations that cause us pain.

In forgiving others, we release ourselves from the prison we built with our anger, resentment,and bitterness. Don't cling to your grievances hoping for an apology...or punishment for the "offender"...it may never happen...and if you stay stuck, chances are you are the only one who stays miserable. Let it go...let God!
