When majority of us hear the word forgiveness, our eyes become downcast because it's the one area where most of us often feel like failures. Admittingly, there's a lot of strength characteristically involved in the act that most of us don't always possess or choose to willingly act upon. Frequently, we take the easy road when it comes to this matter because, humanistically, we're self absorbed and would rather do what makes us feel better, even if the results or satisfaction weighed is temporary. Being no different from anyone else who would rather shy away from the topic, I wonder if forgiving will ever become an effortless deed.

Powerful piece here. I think it's tough to forgive others because it can make you feel somewhat weak. At time we may also fear that the person we are forgiving, may become arrogang, and will perceive us as being weak. However, when done effectively, we can move on from that person, and remove past frustrations and bitterness. On the other hand, it's very difficult for us to forgive ourself, because while we can eventually move on from a disappointment, we can never move away from ourselves the way we can other people. We must fully deal confront the issue, gain clarity, and devote our energy to making amends for our shortcoming, possibly by vowing to help others, before we can truly forgive ourselves. I think one of the ways you are doing this is by being transparent, and sharing yule experiences, which helps others more than you may know. Props to
