Forgive don't Forget!

In life we have all had a time in which someone has done something that deeply hurt us. Our first reaction is hurt, and then anger, then a level of bitterness and hate towards that person. There are some of us out there that can hold on to a grudge. We may wish bad things would occur in that person’s life and that we never have to see, hear from, or hear about that person ever again. But as long as that person remains in your head and heart like that they have power over you. To let someone affect your mood and life with their actions is allowing them to have power over you. Why would you want someone to be able to control you like that?

Forgive don't Forget!




You control every part of your life, from what you want out of life to what you want in life. You control who you want in your life and who you want to keep out; it’s solely up to you. If you have chosen to allow someone into your life who has disrespected you and your feelings then you have the power to remove them from your life. If you remove someone you have to forgive them in order to make it a clean powerless exchange of release. Yes, forgive them. When you hold bitterness and resentment in your heart or head towards a person that person can control you. If you don’t forgive them and let it go, that person can walk in a room and you will be compelled to leave. You may have an invite to a great function and because they will be there you won’t go. They control you. You have to forgive, not forget.



To forgive you let go of what they did and say it was done its over. You move on with controlling your life and everything in it. But never forget, what that person did. Why forgive and not forget? When you forgive you keep your power and control in your life. You don’t let them live rent free in your head and heart. When you forget you leave yourself vulnerable to enduring the same situation again from the same person. People change everyday, but others stay the same everyday. Some people can apologize and be better; others will never apologize and continue to hurt others because they are hurt. Forgive but never forget. Keep your power and release those things in your life that are trying to control you because they have no control over things themselves. You are the king or queen and your life is your kingdom that only you can run. Don’t let your kingdom be overthrown by having a bitter unforgiving heart. It takes a wiser person with a good heart to forgive and not forget; any fool can hold a grudge. Be the bigger person and forgive, just don’t forget.
