Ever so often, I will post a status on Facebook or Twitter that simply says, "Forgive." It's the bottom line of one of the things I love about myself— that I can't hold a grudge. When my best friend and I have a disagreement, by the next day, I have forgotten which has become a joke with us. Sometimes, I'll hear people call things back to the forefront {with really strong emotion} that others did to them years ago, and I feel sorry that they aren't able or willing to move on from it. Resentment weighs you down and influences — even possibly impairs — your outlook. And I want to remain as free and joyful in my life as possible.
I am the same way. I wish people would realize how much unforgiveness hurts them and how much happier they would be if they just forgive! It's all a work in progress. One thing I love about myself is that I can smile, truly smile, through anything!

That's an awesome character trait to have Katrice!! I have become a much better forgiver over the years, but I still have a ways to go.
