A lot of us think that forgiveness is about condoning what someone else has done. We believe that it is saying: “What you did is ok” or "You were right in behaving the way you did".
In fact, forgiveness is freeing ourselves from the anger and resentment that are plaguing us when we do not forgive.
It is making an active choice to be free rather than holding on to a desire to be right.
When we forgive, we choose healing over conflict.
