Life Goal #467: Suck at hating.

If I have ever wanted to suck at anything, it is hating other people. No matter what a person does to you, living in unforgiveness is a choice–and an exhausting one at that! Not to mention that it only hurts you. The person you choose to forgive may not know–or even care!–that they need your forgiveness. Why continue to suffer at the hands of that offender by letting them remain in control of your emotions?

If you are living in unforgiveness, give yourself an amazing gift this Christmas and let go of the hatred. It doesn’t mean that you are OK with what happened or in any way accept it. Instead, it means that you are freeing yourself from the pain that someone else brought about. Don’t stay stuck there. Life is just too short.
