My Thoughts:
Sometimes it's hard to forgive. Forgiving doesn't mean that what was done is now right. It's not. But when you carry ill feelings around, you are only hurting yourself. Why not put your energy into something more positive? No, it might not be easy to let go of how you feel and I understand that. With a lot of practice and patience, you will succeed.

I believe we are spiritual beings experiencing human life to learn lessons, to grow and become more aware of our connection to our soul and God. To forgive those who hurt you can only bring peace in your heart, letting go of the past, and letting the one who asked for forgiveness experience their own spiritual growth.
