Rid Yourself of the Burden of Anger Is it Better to Forgive and Forget? Ashraf

Forgiveness is a key part of our emotional and spiritual evolution.
Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Forgiveness is a key part of our emotional and spiritual evolution. When we fight off forgiveness we tend to lock ourselves in an emotional prison with the person we refuse to forgive. Even holding onto a simple or silly grudge is only bound to hurt the one who is holding on to it. We asked our readers: "What is the best advice anyone every gave you about forgiveness?" Most agreed that forgiving is the path to better health and peace. My burdens are lighter, because I hold no anger or grudges towards anyone. It's true, that when we forgive, we let go of our anger. Anger like hatred is too heavy a burden for me that I cannot accept it. Anger continues to fester inside of our minds and souls to the point it becomes a bad poison to our minds and souls. Get rid of it, fast! It's not worth it, be happy, light and free. Ashraf

Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Forgiveness Helps the Forgiver
Forgiveness often helps the forgiver as much, if not more, than the one forgiven. You can't do much about what people have done to you, but you can do EVERYTHING about how you react to it. Forgive and You’ll Be Forgiven I totally believe in forgiveness and I believe that if you forgive you will be forgiven. I have had a lot of bad things happen in my life and I forgive the people that did what they did to me-if you don’t you will live your life eaten up with hate and die a bitter and unhappy person.

Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf
Forgiveness came easy for me. I always see the best in people and somehow tap into that goodness. However, I never forget. Forgetting hurts leads you into the same trap in the future. Do not forget what has harmed you. Forgive Yourself Well first I need to look at my role in whatever occurred, I might even be the one that needs to be forgiven. I cannot blame someone for allowing myself to be hurt. Big stuff, however I need to forgive and move on. It’s hardest to forgive is myself, but I’m working on that. Ashraf

Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Learn to Forgive
If you don't learn to forgive...you lose Don’t Hold a Grudge My husband told me that I can't control how others treat me or what they say to me. But I can control what is in my heart and how I react to those people who have hurt me. When you hold on to anger or hold a grudge it just takes control of your life. You can't see the good in anything just the negative. How can you expect good to come from evil? It doesn't work that way. Ashraf

Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Love from a Distance
Forgiving is a very mature thing to do. Not many can forgive because they are so hurt. I just let God deal with them. I can forgive, but then I won’t be the same with them. I stay away; if they are willing to hurt once they are willing to hurt again and again. Let Go Forgiveness is letting go of what someone has done to you! I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. -Bonnie Lonteen Ashraf

Forgiveness Is a Process
Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Set Yourself Free. To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you. Forgiveness Is a Process Being a domestic violence survivor I learned about forgiveness in counseling. Forgiveness is a step towards the healing process. Hate will consume your heart, soul and life and can lead to depression, which is anger turned inside. I choose to forgive and pray, but that doesn't mean I have to forget. Ashraf

Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Being Unforgiving
Being unforgiving is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die. . . Forgiveness Is Healing Forgiveness helps with the healing! Forgive to Move Forward We have to forgive! If we don't forgive, we'll get left behind! Ashraf

Forgiveness Is Freedom.
Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Try to Forgive It gets easier and easier, all I have to do, is look at what God has brought me through, what he has forgiven me of, all the grace and mercy that he has given me, and it doesn't take long for me to forgive the other person. Now the change doesn’t always happen overnight, but if you just give it a try; ask God to help you with it. Get real with yourself about God, He knows us to well. The only one you’re fooling is yourself. Forgiveness Is Freedom. Unforgiveness binds you from the past and future. Forgiveness is what you give yourself and that's the freedom to move forward. Lay it at the feet of the Master. The one that hurt you may never acknowledge your pain. Yet the Lord knows your every need. He will give you the grace to heal. Remember forgiveness is a process.

Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Just Pray Mom just says to pray.
-Amy Lauren Bell Carry On With Life More often than not, the 'hurt' that we feel has been imposed 'the issue' of the person doing the hurting, (words, gossip, unfair treatment of any kind) and we should try not to 'absorb' this, even though, when directed at us, this can be VERY difficult. In denying these 'issues' in themselves, they often tend to 'forget' the injury. The answer is; See more insight, prayer, meditation and having FIRM INNER-PERSONAL BOUNDRIES. (Not fighting it - as I have tried to do myself, often). I have absorbed a mountain of 'hurt' during my lifetime which DID lead to depression, isolation and genuine sadness. Just tell yourself if you can, that they have THEIR issues to settle within themselves and carry on with your own life, friends, job & GOD as best you can. Ashraf

Forgive & Forget Presented by Ashraf Forgiving Is Hard
Through my own personal experience, I have found it very, very hard to" Forgive"; especially a couple of people in my life. But, through praying and talking to "God" about them, he finally showed me why I should forgive them. We won't "Forget" but we can "Forgive". Ashraf
