Your forgiveness will set you free. You will benefit greatly if you choose to forgive and so will the people around you. Whether it is forgiving others, or forgiving yourself, forgiveness will set you free from the past and help you reach your full potential. Forgiveness will help you break free from limited beliefs and behaviors. It will release your mental and emotional energy so that you can use it in a better way such as creating a better life. Forgiveness will help you achieve the most practical and immediate goals. Maybe, you want to have a better job, earn more, have a better relationship with the people you love, or live in a better place. Forgiveness will help you achieve all of this. If you do not forgive, part of your life or energy is still confined to resentment, anger, pain, or any kind of suffering. The energy that remains confined will draw you to many things. It's like riding a bicycle that brakes slowly. It slows you down where you can be irritable and difficult for you to move on.
