It's not for them, it's for you

Book excerpt: “Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant with the weak and wrong. Sometime in your life, you will have been all of these.” -Robert H. Goddard Acceptance and forgiveness are two ways to set yourself free. Stop clinging to the past and start thinking about the future. Accept and love yourself for who you are with unconditional compassion. Remember that you have the power of choice, as well as the ability to forgive and accept yourself. If we want to live a happy and fulfilled life, we must practise acceptance and forgiving. Forgiving someone is accepting what has happened rather than accepting every moment that does not go our way. This does not imply that we approve of what was done. It means that we make the conscious decision to let go of any resentment, anger, or blame and move on. Acceptance and forgiveness will bring beauty and calm into your life that you will not be able to appreciate unless you embrace them. “It’s not for them, It’s for you” is a book contributed by 30 writers from the globe who inked about acceptance, forgiveness and peace.
