“Forgiveness is not forgetting, but it is the urge to release those who have hurt you the most.”
“But life isn’t about learning to forgive those who have hurt you or forgetting your past. It’s about learning to forgive yourself for being human and making mistakes.”
“Forgive but do not forget, or you will be hurt again. Forgiving changes the perspectives. Forgetting loses the lesson.”
“Nothing releases like forgive. Nothing renews like forget.”
“Sometimes you just have to let go of those who let go of you. You have to forget those who forgot you. You have to stop being the only one to care. Sometimes it's going to hurt to forget the ones you love, but sometimes its the only way to heal.”
“People think that forgiveness is for the person who wronged you, but it's not. Because when we allow things to bottle up inside of us and we don't release it, or forgive the people who may have caused hurt to come in our lives, we just become bitter. And God can't use bitter people.”
