What Altius loves about this:
“Sincere forgiveness isn't colored with expectations that the other person apologize or change. Don't worry whether or not they finally understand you. Love them and release them. Life feeds back truth to people in its own way and time.” I'm trying to apply this wisdom to find forgiveness and to allow the natural order of life take its course. It's so hard.

Why not think about the one who forgives us the most "Our dear Lord and Savior".  If he can forgive us then who are we not to forgive. Life is way to short to spend it angry and hurt.  Accept the way you feel but, don't dwell on it.  Pray that...

Hi Altius,

The serenity prayer can help.. If you can't accept it ....it's hard to forgive. On a scale from 1 to 10 your acceptance level is low. Try to raise your acceptance level up higher then forgiveness comes easier..

Forgiveness can be quite difficult. What helps me get to that place is realizing that Forgiveness is giving up the hope that the past could have been any different. It is tough at times, but it helps me. I also try and remember that forgivenss is internal. It isn'...

Hi Altius.  Anytime I get hurt, first I have to remember that it will take time to heal (and especially to remember that there is no set timeline on how long it will take).  It can be very difficult to fully forgive some people who have hurt us, but it is most i...

Thank you Cdpwharp.. I think I fail miserably at having the patience to feel the pain. I am trying to force myself to forgive and it leads to more frustration. I will heed your advice and take my time -- It is a process.

Namaste Altius, I have found that by not forgiving  another that the only one it seems to effect (hurt) was myself. I was the one holding the anger. When I learned and am still learning to let go it feels good. A lightness or a feeling of it is over finally. peace &a...

I think this is such a good question.  I have been given the profound opportunity in the past few years to offer sincere forgiveness and have found it to be more of an ongoing spiritual process than a sudden epiphany.  But in the process of finding forgiveness i...

Stop trying, stop looking and become. You have labled yourself as a person who needs it.  You already possess it, it is you, it isn't lost.  Claim it. Identify with it.  You are forgiveness.
