Forgive and Remember

Have you ever been told to forgive and forget?  It's one of those common phrases that people use when giving advice to others.  However, when someone says those words to you, they often don't have all of the details regarding what they are telling you to forgive or what you need to forget.  It might be a better suggestion to tell someone to forgive and remember.  You're not telling them to remember the offense that was done to them.  You are asking them to remember more positive things.  These are some examples of forgive and remember.

  • Forgive and remember the last time you apologized and the response you wanted. Show that grace and compassion to others.
  • Forgive and remember the times you received a second, third, or fourth chance. Pay it forward.
  • Forgive and remember the mistakes you made while trying to do the right thing.
  • Forgive and remember the healed hurts of yesterday influence the potential possibilities of today that lead to the sustained success of tomorrow.
  • Forgive and remember your peace is precious.  Don't let anyone or anything disturb it.
  • Forgive and remember what makes you smile.  A smile not only transforms your face.  It influences your outlook.
  • Forgive and remember when you open your mind and heart to let out what has hurt you, you open them to let in what will heal you.
  • Forgive and remember your past victories, triumphs, and fresh starts. 
 Is there something that you need to forgive and remember?  Leave a comment and share your thoughts on this week's post.
