The Importance Of Forgiveness



Forgive: Releasing resentment towards someone and/or something. Letting go of anger. Saying “I'm Sorry” to another person.

Forgiveness is something that is extremely important for all of us if we all want to be able to move forward with our lives. Each person has the choice to let go of anger, or continue to hang on to it for as long as they choose. Each time a person holds onto anger because of something that someone said and/or did to them, they internalize that anger and it sticks inside of their physical body. Whenever a person holds onto a toxic emotion inside of their body such as anger, it eventually builds up and starts to manifest into some sort of disease.

Whenever a person lets go of the anger, they will feel a relief from within themself that will allow them to move forward with your life and continue to be healthy. Once a person lets go of all of their anger that they have inside themselves, they release resistance to all of the good and positive things that life can offer them. Good things in life like abundance and prosperity. Just think, whenever a person is an angry person, not many people want to be around them. However, whenever a person is a very happy person, many people want to be around that person and even give the person various things.

Radiating happiness into the world allows more happiness to come into ones life. Radiating anger into the world attracts more anger into a person's life. This is why it is very vital for one to learn to forgive and allow themselves to move on with their life. Life always goes on as long as you allow your life to do so.

I myself learned this on my own on a major degree when I once got into a heated argument with my 15 year old niece. We were in my mom's car and I was driving. My mother in the passenger's seat, my niece in the back and her mother was to the right of her. I started to see how she wasn't respecting her mother or my own mother(her grandmother). So I said something about it to my niece, and my niece said something disrespectful to me. Once she said that, I just snapped while driving and I myself yelled at her with so much anger!

This was my very 1st time in a very long time that I have ever yelled like that at anyone. I myself am usually a calm and relaxed type of person. However at that moment, something just pulled me out of my comfort zone and made me snap at her.

So that day went by and the next day came. I then asked my divine spiritual self, “what should I do regarding my niece?” It literally said, “tell her that you are sorry about yelling at her.” I stopped for a second. My ego wasn't too pleased with what it heard lol. However I knew that if the spirit says to do something and especially after I asked for help, it's a wise thing for me to do what it says.

I waited for the perfect time when her and I got some alone time to talk to her. We were in the kitchen and I turned to her and looked her in the eye and said “I'm sorry for yelling at you yesterday. I didn't mean it”. And INSTANLY just like that she said that she was sorry also! It was like my words saying sorry was a warm butter knife and she was a stick of butter and my words of forgiveness just sliced right through her lol! After that moment I seriously realized what forgiving does for oneself and also for other people.

In Summary

Overall, if you want to be able to move forward with your life, and to release that anger that you have inside of yourself, you HAVE to forgive! Find out what type of anger you have inside of yourself and find out where it came from. Who are you still mad at currently and why. Find out if you can find that person. If you can, figure out the best way you feel most comfortable saying sorry to them. This will then allow you to release that anger that is inside of you currently.
