Forgiveness

It amazes me how forgiving parents are. They are the most loving, caring people in this world. No matter what you do, they will always love you. Even though I did something unforgivable, my parents still manage to forgive. But I guess that's how life should be. I've found that out this weekend. Life shouldn't be about holding things, but about forgiving. We only have a handful of days on this earth, and days are completely wasted without forgiveness. Holding a grudge or feeling bitter towards someone will get you no where. It doesn't cause you to grow as a person, but creates a stumbling block. I am even guilty of this, so this message applies to me as well. No one can escape feeling hurt and betrayed at times, but by forgiving that individual who caused the pain you open a closed bud into a slowly blooming flower.
