Forgiveness

Maybe some of you are in a situation where you can relate:

To forgive is to permanently shed hurt feelings and to put something away. It means drawing a line under something and saying, “Finished.”… The courage to forgive is gigantic, an the courage to acknowledge the needs to forgive is perhaps even greater.

Get to know yourself

Be sure of the foudnation of your life. Know why you life as you do. Be ready to give a reason for it. Do not, in such matter as life, build an opinion or custom on what you guess is true. Make it a matter of certainty and science.

Stop your excuses and get going!

If you wait for everything to be perfect according to your preconceived plan, then you may well wait forever. If you go out and work with the current of life, you may find that success comes from building upon small things.

What do you give?

Some people give time, some money, some their skills and connections. Some litterally give they life’s blood. But everyone hast something to give.

If you want to feel proud of yourself, you’ve got to DO things you can be proud of. Feelings follow actions.
