Forgiveness

I had to think about this one for awhile, because the first one that I would have to forgive would be myself. I realized that as I have grown in my life everything that has happened to me was because of my decisions. Forgiveness is something that you do when you have been wronged by someone, but how can you be wronged by anyone when you have the ability to choose how you deal with what they have done or you have perceived that they have done to you. This means that emotions play a major part in this and you can control your emotions and reactions.
