The more anger towards the past you carry in your heart, the less capable you are of loving in the present.
Forgiveness is the economy of the heart... forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits.
Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything - anger, anxiety, or possessions - we cannot be free.
Take the selfishness out of anger and you're left with determination.
Give it all up, the pain, the hurt, the anger, and make room for lovely things to rush in and fill you full.
Forgiveness spares the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits.
