Loving yourself through forgiveness

One of the best ways to show yourself love and appreciation is to forgive. Forgive yourself for allowing someone to hurt you, forgive for believing lies, forgive for your weaknesses. We experience these hardships to learn and grow... not to keep ourselves from loving who we are. That's the beauty part of being human and having our emotions... we can learn and forgive. Forgiving ourselves allows our heart to heal and send out positive vibes into the world... and into our lives. We are amazing beings capable of loving ourselves and others.. so let's do it. We're not perfect .. and outside influences try to keep us from finding wholeness and serenity within ourselves... don't let it. Forgive... gain strength... and above all.. love.
