What are you holding onto?

Have you ever been deeply hurt or offended by somebody else? Most often when somebody hurts us we want to take revenge. Or get back at them for what they've done. We want them to hurt just as bad. What's funny is that, holding a grudge inside ourselves doesn't actually do anything to the other person. In fact, it hurts us over the long run more than it hurts them! 

We have another option. 

The choice is ours. Forgive? Let go? Move on? Or hold it in. Seek revenge. Become bitter. Sometimes this seems like the better way out because it makes us feel good. It makes us feel like the other person is getting what they deserve. Well let me ask you this. Your biggest mistake...do you remember it? What if it was erased...forgotten...forgiven. How would you feel? How would you have been freed from your past in order to move on to an amazing future? 

Think about it. Forgiveness is always the best option - for everyone.
