Greetings, dear Ladies of Hive 馃馃挄
I'm passionate about talking about forgiveness because a few years ago, I thought that certain things that happened in my childhood, which caused me so much pain that it turned into resentment and rebellion, would never be possible for me to forgive.
If forgiveness is especially beneficial for those who manage to overcome past grudges. The invitation to reflect is: Should we always forgive? Why forgive those who don't deserve it? Should we always forgive?
I truly understood the value and importance of forgiving through faith. It was then that I gave my life to God, and He knew how to guide me to forgive. It was a process. At first, I didn't feel at all inclined to forgive someone who had hurt me so deeply.
But I started with a decision, and I knew that although my motivation had been love for God, I also understood that this would bring healing and deliverance to my life 馃檹
You know? I haven't forgotten that event that caused me so much pain, but now I see it differently. I'll never understand why I had to go through that situation if I was just an innocent little girl. I'll never understand why someone who should have cared for me was the very one who was hurting me, but I understood his poverty of soul and that he had sadly been a true slave.
I've grown up, and there are still consequences from what I experienced, but now my thoughts and my life don't revolve around that turbulent past, because when I decided to forgive, many chains were loosed, and my life is now so free. None of that keeps me up at night. I understood that the problem wasn't mine, but the problem with the person who hurt me.
But I, too, have often offended someone in one way or another. Sometimes I've had to ask for forgiveness, and I've learned to do so. Because just as we are capable of hurting, we must also be brave and humble enough to ask for forgiveness.
I believe we should always forgive, because it's not about the other person, but about ourselves. Peace is the most important thing, and we'll never have true peace if we don't remove those grudges from our hearts. It's true, there are people who can sometimes hurt us greatly, but really, what do we achieve by nurturing hatred in our hearts? Nothing. Rest assured, life sooner or later puts things right, and divine justice exists.
Years ago, I decided to free my heart from grudges. Of course, I did remove those people who are negative for my life. There are people we forgive and can live with, but there are others we definitely can't, and that's where we have to learn to differentiate between those we love close to us and those we love miles away.
Forgive, even if it hurts. There are times when it will surely hurt, but later you'll see how liberating it is to let go of the grudge.
This concludes my participation. Thank you, dear ladies, for the opportunity. Thank you so much, my friend

Saludos queridas Damas de Hive 馃馃挄
Me apasiona hablar del perd贸n, porque hace unos a帽os atr谩s pensaba que ciertas cosas que pasaron en mi ni帽ez y que produjeron en m铆 tanto dolor que se convirti贸 en rencor y rebeld铆a, no ser铆a capaz nunca de perdonar.
S铆 el perd贸n es especialmente beneficioso para quienes logran superar los rencores del pasado, la invitaci贸n a reflexionar es: 驴siempre debemos perdonar? 驴porque perdonar a quien no lo merece? 驴debemos perdonar siempre?
Realmente entend铆 el valor y la importancia de perdonar por medio de la fe, fue all铆 cuando entregu茅 mi vida a Dios que 脡l me supo guiar a perdonar, fue un proceso, al principio no sent铆a para nada perdonar a quien me hab铆a herido tan profundamente.
Pero comenc茅 con una decisi贸n y sab铆a que aunque mi motivaci贸n hab铆a sido el amor a Dios, tambi茅n entend铆 que esto traer铆a sanidad y liberaci贸n a mi vida 馃檹
驴Saben? no he olvidado ese acontecimiento que produjo en m铆 tanto dolor, pero ahora lo veo de forma diferente, nunca entender茅 porque tuve que pasar por esa situaci贸n si era solo una peque帽a ni帽a inocente, nunca entender茅 porque alguien que debi贸 cuidarme era precisamente quien me estaba haciendo da帽o, pero entend铆 su pobreza de alma y que 茅l hab铆a sido tristemente un verdadero esclavo.
He crecido y todav铆a hay consecuencias de lo que viv铆, pero ahora mis pensamientos y mi vida no gira en torno a todo ese pasado turbulento, porque cuando decid铆 perdonar, muchas cadenas fueron sueltas y mi vida ahora es tan libre, ya nada de eso me quita el sue帽o, entend铆 que el problema no era m铆o, sino de quien me hizo da帽o.
Pero yo tambi茅n muchas veces he ofendido de alguna u otra manera, en ocasiones he tenido que pedir perd贸n y he aprendido a hacerlo, porque as铆 como somos capaces de herir tambi茅n debemos de ser valientes y tener suficiente humildad para pedir perd贸n.
Creo que siempre debemos perdonar, porque no se trata de la otra persona, sino de uno mismo, la paz es lo m谩s importante y nunca tendremos verdadera paz sino sacamos esos rencores de nuestro coraz贸n, es cierto, hay personas que a veces nos pueden hacer mucho da帽o, pero realmente 驴que logramos con alimentar odio en nuestro coraz贸n? nada, ten por seguro que la vida tarde o temprano se encarga de poner las cosas en su lugar y la justicia divina existe.
Hace a帽os decid铆 tener mi coraz贸n libre de rencores, eso s铆, apartar de m铆 a aquellas personas que son negativas para mi vida, hay personas que perdonamos y podemos convivir con ellas, pero hay otras que definitivamente no, y es all铆 en donde tenemos que saber diferenciar a quienes queremos cerca de nosotros, pero a quienes queremos a kil贸metros de distancia.
Perdona, aunque duela, hay momentos en que seguro doler谩, pero despu茅s ver谩s como es de liberador el dejar ir el rencor.
Hasta aqu铆 mi participaci贸n, gracias queridas damas por la oportunidad, Muchas gracias, amiga
