Forgiving

Came across some very interesting quotes on forgiving. I am a great believer and usually a practitioner of forgiving - unabashedly, always, everyone..till some time ago atleast...Recently is a different me...more egoistic, self - centred, cynical, not so giving or forgiving me...

"Forgiving what we can't forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future." Smedes

"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." Lewis B. Smedes

"Decide to forgive. Make your mind up. Then don't listen to anything, don't get trapped in the maze of any questions, any doubts...just forgive and experience the marvel, the lightness, the freedom"

Yes, to forgive is to free yourself, to stop being the victim. Can I forgive yet? Maybe not...Don't know why its so hard though....it's so wonderful and your heart's repelling wonder....or is it your ego? May be wisdom and generosity come with time....so will forgiving

So long..till then!
