Forgiveness frees the forgiver much more than the offender

Real whole-hearted forgiveness can only take place when you've have been hurt inexcusably. It takes an unconditional forgiveness flowing from unconditional love. We must learn to love unconditionally people who don’t deserve it & forgive them when they do something inexcusable. It's the only way to achieve true peace & freedom from the wrongs others have done and the pain their actions have caused. It's only through true forgiveness that the weight of vengeance is removed from our hearts & mind. When you forgive there is no obligation to carry the hurt, anger, fear or sadness anymore. The act of forgiving is not only one of the most pure acts of love form the forgiver to the offender but also for the forgiver.
