There Is No Peace Without Forgiveness

Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness. – Marianne Williamson

Forgiveness Is A New Beginning

Forgiveness is the creation of a new beginning. Forgiveness is starting over and trying again with the person who caused you pain. It does not always take away the hurt. It does not deny the past injury. It merely refuses to allow it to stand in the way of a new start.
Forgiveness does not deny the past — it can only create a new future.
