You will know that forgiveness has begun when you recall those who hurt you and feel the power to wish them well.
When there's that forgiveness present and compassion, it just helps you live so much easier.
FORGIVENESS, PRESENT AND COMPASSION

People can be more forgiving than you can imagine. But you have to forgive yourself. Let go of what's bitter and move on.

I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It's a gift you give yourself.
FORGIVENESS, FORGIVENESS LIBERATES THE VICTIM
Darkness cannot drive out darkness only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate only love can do that.
