The Power of Forgiveness

What a wonderful first day to spring. The sun is shining, the warm breeze is blowing. We are so lucky to be here each and every day.

Yesterday I spoke about Living your best life. I also talked about forgiving people and that is what helps me live my best life.
The power of forgiveness is a wonderful, fulfilling feeling.
However, I can understand that some circumstances do not allow oneself to forgive another person for their wrongdoings.
I know of a lady who lost a child this year due to another family members mistake. It has been heartwrenching for all involved and due to the circumstances this family cannot forgive the family member who caused the incident that took their child's life. As a mother myself I can totally understand where they are coming from. Not everything can be forgiven. If someone was responsible for taking my child's life I don't think I could forgive.
This is where we still can find forgiveness in our heart and soul. If you cannot ever forgive the person or circumstance you can forgive Yourself for not being able to forgive.
You can let go of the guilt you hold yourself. Once you have achieved this your soul will be restored and healed. We will feel uplifted, refreshed and renewed.
If there is something holding you back from forgiving, something that is not totally unforgiveable, remember people make mistakes. We are all human and we all say and do things we later regret. Life is too short to hold grudges over minor things.
If you hold a grudge forever over a little disagreement think of all the wonderful times and opportunities you may miss. Everyone deserves a chance and even a second and third chance. If you have in you the inability to forgive than at least look at the circumstances again through a different set of eyes. hrough their eyes. Offer them support. Offer them kindness. Offer them love. Do your best to help them. 
 If this fails to work, forgive yourself, and know you tried your best :)
