Forgive and be calm
Life is beautiful and so are the obstacles. There is nothing called as preset for you. You have to carve it. How much time do you spend on counting your blessings? You may not realise because you are busy counting what things you don’t have. Or to put it in better words, what all God has not given you? There is more to the list that says who all have made you sad? You will never forgive them. And this is what life is filled with. Happiness is short-lived but sad times stay for a longer period. You need to forgive in order to be calm.
It is not easy to forgive
The biggest problem with forgiveness is that your ego comes in between. The ego manipulates your mind and makes you feel superior. You feel brave when you don’t forgive and make the other person suffer. Yes, the other person suffers but with you. You are also holding on to that particular thing until you forgive and move ahead. Think about it!
There is one more complaint that why should you forgive now when they have messed up your past? The answer is to make your today pleasant. They will face their share of sufferings or they must have had. But why should you keep a track of that? Instead, be happy for your blessings. Try once in your life to forgive and move ahead. You will actually feel light and peaceful. When we hold on to our past, we don’t prepare for the future. There are many things in life to be happy with. Remember that you are always in a better position than others.
Life is full of blessings
There is so much more to life than negative vibes people spread around. It is actually very difficult to survive in that environment. But persistence to be happy and to ignore the bad helps us face the future. To forgive is the biggest quality one can possess to live peacefully.

Writing on the prompt – Forgive
Forgiveness is not an easy thing to do but quite liberating once done. Sometimes it hurts so deep it takes a long time to forgive.
I guess for me the best part is the persistence to be happy and ignoring the negativity which always works for most people! Forgiving someone isn’t easy when the hurt is still there, but the only way forward is when we move ahead, rather than look back and keep brooding. That’s the best part of forgiveness—it lets you move on and move ahead. Glad to see you at FoW, Geethica. 🙂
