"Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave".
- Indira Gandhi
Sometime life throws us a curveball. It's something that interferes with our happy and natural flow of living. We could of been on a roll, and then out of the blue it hits us, and shatters us to a million pieces...and all we can ask ourselves is why? Am I being punished for my wrongdoings in the past? Is it a test? Or is someone trying to tell me something? They say everything happens for a reason. But it's making sense of that reason that gives us the courage to move on. It's the power of thought that lets us live in the present moment, and relinquish the past. It's knowing we can overcome our suffering of what "did" happen, and fight our fears of what "could" happen. But it's not always easy. It's a strength we need to find within us. It's being able to accept that our expectations weren't fulfilled. It's being able to accept that someone we love has let us down. But most importantly...it's being able to find the fortitude within our hearts to forgive and forget.
