A Matter of Choice

Forgiveness is a positive choice.

Worrying and agonizing about problems before they actually happen can often become unnecessary and painful preoccupations.

Being forgiven is the other side of forgiveness that is rarely talked about, but which can often represent a challenging situation.

Forgiveness can be a transformative spiritual power.

Overcoming the powerful temptations to exact revenge often is not recognized for the strength and wisdom it requires.

Some degree of suffering seems to be inevitable, but recovering from it can take many different forms, some more positive than others.

Success rarely comes without having overcome some degree of suffering and difficulty. Just ask someone who has been successful.

You won’t be reading about the positive benefits of revenge in any book of wisdom.

The past is best used as a constructive resource for making wise choices in the present.

While it may feel good in the passion of the moment, revenge turns out to be a destructive and self-defeating reaction.
