Forgive and Forget

I was watching The Hills last night and Heidi and Lauren finally decided to talk about the things that had torn them apart. Laurens' last words were "I think the best thing to do is to forgive and forget, so I want to forgive you and forget you." I wish things were that easy, but we aren't asked to forget people, just the trespasses that they have made against us.

I am working on that right now. The worst thing to do is to hold grudges against people that didn't do anything to you, but their actions still indirectly affect you and your emotions. I am so grateful for my beliefs and for the encouragement that that brings. I know that no matter how many things happen or how hard things are everything is going to be alright; all I have to do is to forgive and forget.

The simplicity of the principle of forgiving and forgetting has helped me through several different struggles over the past few days and although I haven't completely let go of the feelings that I felt, I am working towards that and slowly becoming at ease with everything again. I know things will alright, I know it.
