Forgiveness...

...is such a beautiful feeling.

That's all :wub:

My husband upset me dearly today...he made a major financial decision (and not a good one) without consulting me...and I got mad, and I got hurt, and I got upset...but he truly is sorry for his rash decision making and he apologized (he's also working on a solution to the problem)...and you know what? I am forgiving him and it is such a freeing feeling.

I am feeling very much lately like it is important to forgive and live in love. Carrying around anger and resentment never did anyone any good, kwiM? :o

Oh, and sorry this was so random. I don't really have anyone IRL to talk to right now, lol :)
 
Quite true, my dear. The letting go and forgiveness can be so empowering and uplifting.

Glad you're feeling better and hope it all sorts out!
 
isn't it!! hey if the one who created us can forgive over and over a thousand fold who are we not to do the same. hugs friend, i hope david gets it all sorted out for the good of your family! and hey i'm 'IRL'...call silly!! xo
 
I agree for the most part. I do think forgiveness is not always possible but if the person who is asking for forgiveness is actually sorry/remorseful for their actions AND you love them then it makes it easier. The remorsefullness (not sure if that is a word LOL) is essential though I think and it is easier to me to forgive a person who I care about then it is to forgive someone who is a stranger to me. Not really sure why.

Hope you and your hubby can get it all straightened out. You have a really great attitude about it so that is defenitely the best way to start.
 
You're such an inspiration Lena! Your strength and positive attitude never cease to amaze me. Love you girl and I hope the situation gets resolved in the way that's best for everyone.
 
AMEN Lena! <<<HUGS>>> That's so wonderful of you!! And I sent a prayer up for whatever the financial situation is in hopes that all turns out just fine!
 
Good for you Lena! It's just not worth it to hold on to anger is it? And it's much easier saying it than doing it! :)
 
I have had a hard time with that in the past but I am trying harder and it seems to get easier (depending on the situation). You are an inspiration and I hope everything works out for you guys.
 
God bless you Lena! Forgiveness can be so difficult, especially when we hurt, but it is so freeing when we do it.
Life is too short to hang on to anger and hurt. My DH went off to work 8 years ago and never came home (he was killed in a horrible accident), one of the few comforts I have had over these years is that we always forgave each other for all the hurts (large or small). I have had a hard enough time trying to live on, I can't imagine the life sucking regrets I would have had to deal with if we hadn't. Anyway, thats why I know how important forgiveness is. Again, Bless you Lena!
 
I need to do that - forgive my husband for a past sin that in my MIND seems so little now but in my HEART still hurts. I wish there was a button! But you have inpsired me to put some real effort into it!
