Many people believe that forgiving someone involves you telling someone you are no longer angry with them or accepting an apology, but in reality forgiveness is much deeper then that. Many people leave anger held up inside them and spend day after day thinking about how angry they are at someone or something and don't see that the anger is consuming their time and life. Forgiveness is freedom from this anger and freedom from spending time on something you don't want to this is why I chose the quote I chose. Forgiving someone is just as much for you as much as it is for them, no one even needs to know that you forgive them but you. Forgiving someone allows you to free yourself from their grasp and get back to loving life and happiness, anger affects all your relationships and forgiveness heals them. Truly forgiving someone takes a burden of anger and resentment off of your back and allows you to be free, and this quote shows that forgiveness isn't a gift to others but a gift that only you can give to yourself.
