A Queen's Diary

Forgiveness is sometimes the hardest thing a person can show towards someone. I have been going through some rough times when it comes to forgiving people. In the past, I would shrug off the people that have done wrong to me and blow them off as if they didn’t exist. But not forgiving them just made me hold resentment towards them, and that wasn’t healthy for myself or the people around me. When I would hold a grudge, it turned me into an angry and bitter person. I actually thought that forgiving someone would cripple me in some sort of way and I would feel weak or I would always think to myself, “How could someone treat me so wrong?” or “How can someone disrespect me and think that it was ok?” All I wanted to do was blow them off and have a negative vibe towards them, but what good is that going to do? How can I benefit from being so negative? I needed to learn that letting go and eventually forgiving people will help me keep a peace of mind. People make mistakes, including myself. If someone is willing to admit their faults and apologize, then why not open up and forgive? It can honestly help mend relationships. Even if someone doesn’t admit their faults, forgiveness is one of the most powerful tools that you can use/have. It doesn’t justify what someone has done to you, but it begins the healing process. I have just began my healing process with forgiving someone, and it already feels like a weight has been lifted.
