Forgiveness is not weakness rather is strength
Good day, amazing people of the Hive blockchain. Welcome back to my blog. It is another edition in the #hiveghana community. I am so delighted to be participating in this week's prompt topic, FORGIVENESS STRENGTH.
Forgiving someone who wronged you easily doesn't mean you are weak or selfish; rather, you choose peace of mind. You see, this thing called forgiveness is not easy. Do you know what it means to forgive someone who hurts you? I see anyone who forgives as a brave one because I know what it takes to let go of someone who hurt you more, especially if it happens that the person betrayed you. I understand in most cases when we forgive someone who didn't deserve our forgiveness, people may think that you are weak for forgiving so easily. I will not lie; it takes a lot of courage and strength to let go of who wronged you.
When it comes to forgiveness, there are many ideologies to it. Something that if you forgive so easily, there is a possibility that people will always worry, and at the end they will always come and apologize, and you will accept because you are a peace-loving person. In most cases, they will always use it against you. While some think that when you forgive, it will prevent you from dwelling in the past, people like this forgive but forget. They are very careful because they don't want to be broken again.
I see forgiveness as a divine gift because it is not everyone that has the heart to forgive. There are some people; the moment you wrong them, be well assured that they will surely take revenge. Speaking from experience, there was a time someone so dear to me hurt me, but I promised myself that nothing would ever make me forgive the person, but believe me, I never had peace of mind. Anything I saw the person, my heart beat so fast, and I felt bitter, but the very moment I chose peace over holding on to the bitterness, that was the day I had peace of mind. We believe as humans it is our right to get angry, but we should never allow our anger to get the better part of us. No matter how okay you may try to act, it will always affect your mood. Forgiving means you don’t want your anger to control you.
For me, forgiving someone who wronged you is the best thing you can ever do for yourself. I am this kind of person that doesn't like dwelling in the past. I forgive people who wrong me; that doesn't mean that I am weak, but I am doing it to have peace of mind. The holy book made us understand that before you can forgive someone, you should forgive yourself first. Forgiving is a must for us. Why put yourself in a tight corner?
Never think that forgiveness is weakness; rather, forgiveness is strength. It only takes a brave heart to let go and move on.
my kind of world, the moment I forgive, I forget everything and move on with the future. I know it is not easy for us to forgive, but for our mental health and total well-being, we should let go and forgive whoever wrongs us.
