Forgive and Forget

The remedy for wrongs is to forget them.
- Publilius Syrus

Forgiveness is not always easy.
At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered,
to forgive the one that inflicted it.
And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness.
- Marianne Williamson

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon...
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
- attributed to St. Francis of Assisi

Unconditional forgiveness is the path to your own inner peace.
