I know other thing are important to being happy lol such as breathing. But this week I have learned a great lesson on forgiveness and how happy it has made me.
I am sure I will forget this lesson and have to learn it all over again but for this week I kept up. I had several instances were I was belittled and talk down to very harshly and not in a constructive manner. I know everyone has had a person treat them horribly and I am no exception. I just had to pay my dues of getting treated bad but I have not felt this badly from the someones behavior towards me in a long time. So I did something I never have done before, I forgave them. In the past if someone had treated me this badly I would have carried it and felt so bad and worse towards them. The forgiveness has made me so happy I can not even explain.
I had to say it in my head and out loud like 500 times before I barely started to feel it but each time something bad happened it was little easier to forgive. I think of it now like a muscle that needs to be worked out and I am going to work on it everyday. I feel so blessed to have found this tool for happiness and it was right under nose all my life.
No one should make you feel inferior or less than. Be strong and be yourself, its a true freedom to do so.
