This is the one word that came in my mind while I am thinking what topic I am going to write. I dont know but yeah... So lets start.

What is forgiveness? Forgiveness means the ability to forgive, releasing of resentment feelings toward a person or group who has harmed you its either physical or emotional or did any mistakes to you. Whether they actually deserve or not your forgiveness. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting or excusing the harm done to you or making up with the person who caused the harm. Forgiveness is letting go of bitterness and grudges. Forgiveness brings a kind of peace that helps you go on with life. But forgiveness can apply depends on the situation. Letting go your regrets and letting go your feelings.

When your friend backstabbed on you

When your friend is okay to you when you are together but telling more bad things about you when you are not around. It is really hurt specially when you treated her like your own sister. You are being true to her but she didnt treat you good. Iyan ang tinatawag na plastic or orocan friend....hehehe... But despite of that we need to forgive them for what they did to us. Maybe you discover that because God find a way for you to avoid her because that kind of friend is not a good one. We all know that true friends is hard to find. But better to have none than to have one with a bad attitude. Naaaah better to be alone....HAHAHA. Forgive her but dont be friend her anymore..

When your bf/gf cheated on you

We all know that it is hard to forgive and being able to forgive takes time. Specially if someone who hurts you is the someone you love the most.But maybe they do cheating because they find someone better than us. Its hurt but atleast you discover this earlier. Its hard when you are already married and then you will find out what he's doing.

But how can we forgive someone who cheated on us? It may seem easy to say the words, “I forgive you,” but it actually takes a lot more than that. You have to accept the fact that your partner was unfaithful and then you should probably talk to them about what went wrong in the relationship. If your partner apologized you sincerely then there are the hopes for the two of you. But please bear in mind that forgiving is okay but if it is second or third time happening again and again, stop it. He is just fooling you. And that kind of partner is not the right one for you. Maybe we can forgive but dont go back to him ever again. You know its easy to forgive but hard to forget. It is like a scars in your heart that will never fade. It will maybe but it needs a lot of time to forget.

Self forgiveness

Once in our life it is happened that we make a decision but after that we cant forgive ourselves.Forgiving yourself is about more than just putting the past behind you and moving on. It is about accepting what has happened and showing compassion to yourself.

Self-forgiveness isn’t easy. You probably have had the experience of doing something you regret. Maybe you hurt someone you cared about. Maybe you fell short of the standards you set for yourself. Whatever happened, it might have been difficult for you to move on from what you did. Maybe you kept thinking about it. It’s difficult to forgive yourself and move on. But despite of that please remember that we are just a human being who can do a mistakes and wrong decisions in life. We are not perfect and we need to accept that. Maybe it is happened for us to know how to move on in that kind of situations. A mind opener or eye opener or whatever it is. It served a lesson for us to be a better person so that if it happen again we are ready to face that battle again. We can do mistakes and regrets in our life but we need to forgive ourselves for moving on. Dont stuck on what you are right now. Forgive yourself and you will have an inner peace and from that you can make a right decision.

Forgiveness does not necessarily mean to stay together. Only you know what is best for you, and if you think you can forgive them and stay together, more power to you. If your gut is telling you that the best thing would be to walk away, listen. You are the boss of your life and you are the only driver in your car. Whatever decision you want as long as you didnt hurt someone, then you are free baby. Follow your heart and your guts and your happiness.

We think that forgiveness is weakness, but it's absolutely not; it takes a very strong person to forgive- T.D.Jakes

Lets forgive and forget!
