Compassion

November 30, 2021 by Nadine Gordon

Compassion is about forgiveness;                                                  Learn how to forgive;

    A few words, but powerful! Well done!
    This really is a true lesson that we need to learn. Its hard to forgive when someone really hurts us, but a lot of times it is even harder to forgive ourselves! We carry so much guilt inside for different things and a lot of times we don’t even realize it. We need to let go, for like you said, that is what helps us be able to pass on the gift of forgiveness to others. ❤

    Theodore Roosevelt once said, “If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn’t sit for a month.” So maybe forgiving ourselves can save us from a lot of pain.
