Forgive!

People often let us down. It’s such a source of heart ache.And yet I’ve found one consolation:If people never disappointed me, life would be unbearable. What a miserable freak I’d feel living on a planet where I’m the only one who makes mistakes!
And if you couldn't believe that lie then there is one solution We should learn to forgive..
Forgiveness does not necessarily mean reconciliation with the person that hurt you, or condoning of their action. What you are after is to find peace. Forgiveness can be defined as the "peace and understanding that come from blaming that which has hurt you less, taking the life experience less personally, and changing your grievance story." so you gotta put your energy into looking for another way to get your positive goals met than through the experience that has hurt you. Instead of mentally replaying your hurt seek out new ways to get what you want.And remember that a life well lived is your best revenge. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, and thereby giving the person who caused you pain power over you, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Forgiveness is about personal power.
