The Power of Forgiveness

When it comes to fulfilling lifes goals and dreams many people may not achieve them because they focus most of their attention and energy on incidents that took place in the past. It is in human nature to live in the past the present or the future. But we all can benefit significantly by living in the present because that is where forgiveness takes place. Forgiveness is a concept that many people have either completely downplayed or forgotten entirely. Somehow it appears we do not know the best way to deal with it. A lot of people are lucky to have learnt how to forgive early in life. For most people however being unable to forgive someone leaves a wound that reopens every time an incident happens that triggers something similar to what caused the injury in the first place. For most people forgiveness has a bad aftertaste. They associate forgiveness with weakness. When you finish reading this book you will come to the understanding that it is the exact opposite.  Forgiveness is an act of bravery maturity and intelligence. For a lot of people the subject of forgiveness has religious connotations. Some religions have been concerned about the philosophy and practice of forgiveness since their beginnings. Many people have been helped. However as beliefs evolve there is always a shift from the inner truth to the outer necessity to conform to social standards and protocols.
