Forgiveness
How do you forgive ?  How do you know what to forgive and let go of. Everyone has there own battles with this very silent but crippling word. Do you lower yourself to forgive to permit or to ok what was wrong to right. See thats where it gets me. Its not ok for what someone else does and to permit it to be right. On the other hand who I am to judge. There are laws put in place for right and wrong doers,but what if that never happened and the wrong doer doesn't pay or is  not recognize to what they did wrong. All over the world even just yesterday people are killed senselessly. There gone there short lives gone a concert venue bombed and 22 people some young girls gone. 
Forgiveness is the cornerstone of love it it a gift you give yourself. Be willing to release hurt,revenge,and resentment.  They only cloud love and prevent it from entering your life. It is important to Forgive but not necessarily forget. Don't  stuff down your feelings, but don't wallow in them either. Forgiveness is for you not the other person. This beautiful wise pray reminded me recited by a 5 year old made me realize the truth.

Matthew 6:9-13 
Our Farther in Heaven, hallow be thy name. Your kingdom come your will be done, on earth and in Heaven. Give us this our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
